Backup fails, if autofs is running, but sources not reachable
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If you are trying to backup a system containing paths that are managed
by autofs, you may run into this error:

Thus, if you are unsure whether autofs paths can be mounted during backup,
stop autofs in pre_exec and reenable it in post_exec.
