Ralph, I have a feeling that those who know are going to want to see a list of the relevant settings to get a better grasp on how things are set. However, I have a suspicion that you are on the right track. If a backup is missed, then it is put into the queue and it will start as soon as it is able to. You may be able to use the blackout hours to help.

I'm lost with the parameters of WakeupSchedule and Backupplan. My Intention is that BackupPC wakes up once at 3 pm to do the nightly Jobs and the backup of a host shall start shortly before midnight and run from then throughout the following night. Whatever I try the backup of the host always starts at 3 pm. Is that because the BackupPCNightlyPeriod<http://192.168.2.2/index.cgi?action=view&type=docs#_conf_backuppcnightlyperiod_> is set to 8 so that on days without doing nightly jobs the host backup starts instead? What's wrong here? I also tried to start the backup jobs as cron jobs. That didn't work either. Thanks for any assistance.
