Backup doesn't seem to be running at 1am when the task is set to "always"

Hi Community,

I’ve running ZimaOS 1.5.3 on a BeeLink Me Mini NAS.

I’ve setup a bunch of backup tasks to copy files over from my primary NAS (via SMB) onto the RAID 5 on ZimaOS. At the same time, the backup will also make a secondary copy to a Direct Attached Storage (DAS) device that is connected to the BeeLink Me Mini via USB.

Based on the description of the “always” setting of the backup schedule, the tasks is supposed to run daily at 0100 AM. I’ve left the backup tasks for a few days and it never seems to run automatically as advertised. Only when I manually start the task does the label of the latest update get updated.

I’ve also gone in the ZimaOS shell and looked in ZimaOS-HD/.log/casaos/ directory and couldn’t find any logs specific to backups.

Has anybody managed to get the backups to run automatically at 1am? Or have I done something wrong/stupid with my setup.

Would appreciate any advice or guidance from the Community. Thanks in advance.
