How does that system work?
You could run a shell script that checks for the rsnapshot process or
PID file. The script could either quit or loop when this is the case.
---------snip------------
#!/bin/sh
#/usr/local/sbin/shutdown.sh
#detect rsnapshot process and exit
pidof rsnapshot && echo "Shutdown cancelled" || shutdown -h now
#alternatively, use the PID file, and loop in a 10 min. interval
[ ! -e /var/run/rsnapshot.pid ] && RSNAPSHOT="0" || RSNAPSHOT="1"
while [ "${RSNAPSHOT}" == "1" ] ; do
[ ! -e /var/run/rsnapshot.pid ] && RSNAPSHOT="0" && break || sleep 600
done
shutdown -h now
---------snap------------
