Hi all,

    what is the best way to interrupt a running backup?


I sometimes need to do a quick stop to a running backup - usually via
ctrl-c, or a system shutdown.  Sometimes its a clean restart to the
backups, but often there is a lock left behind, and also other forms of
corruption.  Is there a less abrupt way of stopping?
