[FX.php List] FM checks out during FMS backup

[Jonathan Schwartz]

I agree, it shouldn't be "normal", but it occurs every time for this 
application.  And we're not asking for a lot of data.  I have the 
impression from our experience that FMS Web Publishing  is totally 
unavailable during the backup, not just slow.  Perhaps I should try 
some scaled tests and see if FMS Web Publishg will respond to *any* 
request during the backup.
