Well, there's always Murphy's law :-)

If something breaks after amcheck completes, the backup may fail on
the broken host.  Also, some host may time out, run out of memory,
etc.  Things are very creating in finding ways to fail.

But, in general, as soon as amcheck passes, you can be relatively
confident that things will hopefully work.
