Hi,

from documentation:

The first entry of $Conf{WakeupSchedule} 
<https://backuppc42.knebb.de/backuppc/index.cgi?action=view&type=docs#_conf_wakeupschedule_> 
is when BackupPC_nightly is run. You might want to re-arrange the 
entries in $Conf{WakeupSchedule} 
<https://backuppc42.knebb.de/backuppc/index.cgi?action=view&type=docs#_conf_wakeupschedule_> 
(they don't have to be ascending) so that the first entry is when you 
want BackupPC_nightly to run (eg: when you don't expect a lot of regular 
backups to run).

So there is your solution...

Greetings

/Christian
