usually, this is a result of not having enough good pings, but in this case I'd guess you have a wakeup scheduled for 0:00, and this is when backups are started. You could drop this wakeup from the schedule or shift it by a small amount. Then again, BlackoutPeriods is checked when the backup is *run* (as opposed to *queued*), which would tend to be slightly later than the wakeup anyway - at least for some hosts, unless all are started in parallel. Check your configuration(*). Regards, Holger (*) We can't.
