Hi Everyone,

I was trying to restrict backuppc to start / backup 2 hosts while 1 is in progress. Reading and search i came across something called " semaphore" and the idea that it can be implemented using the DumpPreUserCmd and DumpPostUserCmd. Can anyone please help on how this can actually be implemented.

Basically these hosts are different drives on the same machine and i don't want 2 drives to be backed up at the same time. (trying to setup and use volume shadow hence need to backup a single drive at a time).

Thanks and Regards,

Anand Gupta
