I periodically have a need to backup our Netbackup DB to a tape to give
someone.  If I use the "Immediately Backup DB," I know that no more backup
requests will be handled while the database is backing up...but what about
those backups that are already running?

Assuming I don't care if their backup information is in the database (say,
they're for completely unrelated classes/clients/pools/volumes), is it OK to
run a database backup
while there are active backup jobs?  

I don't want to experiment ;)
