What is best way to temporarily suspend a USB MSC interface?

[david.harrison]

Hi, I have a USB Composite Device (MSC + HID) implemented on an ST Microelectronics ARM Cortex-M7 microcontroller. I also have a local FAT file system running at the same time. Since you cannot have two separate file systems accessing a file resource (micro-SD card) at the same time, I need to temporarily suspend operation of the MSC interface before doing local file accesses and then restore it afterwards.

At what level in the MSC Interface is it best to suspend and then restart it?

Thanks.
