ReadyNAS Backup Job Completion Detection?

I have a task I wish to automate via an SSH connection, but I need to start it after a backup job (regular scheduled backup to a USB drive) has completed.

 

Is there a way to detect when a certain (yes I have more than 1) backup job has completed via the CLI? Some sort of cmd with a response that could be parsed by a script to give a finished/running indication would be ideal. I already have SSH access etc.

 

For those interested, I am automating my backup verifications. Happy to discuss my project further...

 

Many thanks,

Ian
