Hello!
I had a series of new hosts that were put in place in the last few days.
All of them had been pinged enough that they were postponed to the
blackout period for the first time today, which is set to the default
(07:00-19:30). I had started the backups manually in the past, which
meant that their last backup was now over 1 day old, but not yet started
because of the blackout period.
However, I just rebooted the server. All of the computers that were
being held because of the blackout period just started. Here's a
example from a host's Home page:
Host <server> Backup Summary
* This PC is used by support.
* Last email sent to support was at 1/20 01:03, subject "BackupPC:
no backups of <server> have succeeded".
* Last status is state "backup in progress" as of 1/22 15:00.
* Pings to <server> have succeeded 7 consecutive times.
* Because <server> has been on the network at least 7 consecutive
times, it will not be backed up from 7:00 to 19:30 on Mon, Tue, Wed,
Thu, Fri.
As you can see, it says that the backup is in process, which is its own
doing, as well as the fact that it should be part of the blackout
window. From what I can tell, the scheduler is not respecting the
blackout window on initial startup.
I am running BackupPC 3.0beta3.
If you need further details, please let me know. Thank you once again
for such a useful project.
