[BackupPC-users] BlackoutPeriods seemingly ignored

[martin f k. <ma...@ma...>]

Hello,

I have a few hosts that should only be backed up between 23:00 and
7:00, i.e. when the network is not used much. Hence, I set
BlackoutPeriod for them to

  $Conf{BlackoutPeriods} = [
    {
      'hourEnd' => '23',
      'weekDays' => [
        '1',
        '2',
        '3',
        '4',
        '5',
        '6',
        '7'
      ],
      'hourBegin' => '7'
    }
  ];

which I can verify in the web interface (see attached image).

However, all the PCs ended up being queued at 09:00 this morning,
and their last backup was yesterday between 17:00 and 19:00 o'clock.
It seems almost like BackupPC is just ignoring BlackoutPeriods, but
I doubt that this is the case.

Any idea what I might be doing wrong?
