If you specify -volumeId=87, but volume 87 does not exist, it's ok. No files will be created locally. This gives the opportunity that you can create a backup script simply looping from 1 to 100. All existing volumes will be backed up. The non-existing volumes can also be backed up when they are created remotely.
The backup scripts is just one command, not a continuous running service though. High Availability servers will be added later.

* How to test a backup
