eject when Time Machine backup is done

Open fabiovogt opened this issue 1 year ago • 5 comments

Would be great to have the option to eject a disk after the backup process of Time Machine is done.

In theory, this is possible, but Time Machine will stop backing up automatically so I guess you want Ejectify to (temporarily) remount, as well, right? How often/when?

For me it's not necessary to automatically remount the disk. But I guess in generell / for the majority of people it would be great if Ejectify could read the Time Machine settings and remount accordingly (every hour/ every day/ every week).
