[BackupPC-users] Troubles avoiding nightly backups on V4

[R.C.]

Hi All

I have Backuppc V4 rpm installation on Centos8 and I am experiencing 
troubles with blackout periods.
I would like this server to perform backups during daytime only but I 
cannot apply the desired behaviour.
At the end of this message you can find my $Conf{WakeupSchedule} and 
$Conf{BlackoutPeriods}.

I have not defined blackout periods per hosts and thus only server-wide 
periods should be applied. I have of course reloaded configuration 
multiple times but no changes.

For example, one host started a backup at 1:00 AM tuesday and another 
20:36 monday. This is in contrast with the second blackout period I have 
defined.

Could it be related to locales in some way? How?

Am I doing something wrong?

Thank you

Raf
