I believe you could use 1822L logical addressing for this purpose, by arranging
that only one host enables a particular logical address at a time -- i.e.  when
backing up some other host.  Of coure you have to using 1822l headers, and be
willing to change your host addresses, both possibly formidable obstacles.  Buz
