vvengine settings

I have several profiles active. One backs up to an internal drive, one copies the contents of the internal drive to a file server connected to the network. They both work just fine.

One runs when changes are detected, and the other once a month. Can vvengine prevent the one from running when the monthly one is operating?

It's not a big deal, but it seems that since the destination of one is the source of the other, that both should not be running at the same time to avoid comparison issues.

For the real-time profile, set the 'Start only if' condition, and use the
running_process_exists("viceversa.exe") == false (See help for more info)

This will only start the ViceVersa is not already running another profile.

In the next VVEngine version we plan to have the variable profile_is_running("profilename"), and/or any profile running.
