Thanks. I found that option in the configuration and I have already 
tried it, but sometimes it will still start backups at 10 then. I would 
like to see the nightly job running exclusively, so without any backup 
tasks running.

I have done some more thinking about this and I have possibly fixed 
this with a blackout period at the time of the first entry in the 
WakeupSchedule, combined with Blackout Good Count of zero. I'm not sure 
if it will work, but I'll probably know in a day :) I don't use the 
blackout period for other things, so for me this might be a fix.

Best regards,
