Two possibilities:

1. Instead of running a monthly full backup of some clients, create
backupsets of them. This has the added advantage of not requiring
another data pull across the network.

2. Failing that, create a script that locks out the offending nodes
during the monthly backups. Timing may be a little tricky with this
one.
