The behavior shouldn't have changed.
Here are some things to check:
- the BackupPC server LOG file - any messages for hosts that you expect
should start?
- the host LOG file for a host that doesn't start
- have blackouts changed in some way?
- if you manually start a backup on one of the "skipped" hosts, does it
run (eg, perhaps ping returns different output now)?
- you can manually run a backup on a "skipped" host (su backuppc;
BackupPC_dump -v HOST) ; the -v option gives more output on what BackupPC
is doing for that host, including why it might skip the host)
