1 of 2 Scheduled Backups Does Not Run

Hi Dave. I have the latest SuperDuper running on Yosemite 10.10.5. For quite some time I've been running 2 scheduled SuperDuper backups, 1 of an external Thunderbolt boot drive (SSD) & 1 of an internal HD. Both are scheduled at 3AM daily. I have a wakeup scheduled for 2:54AM in Energy Saver preferences. I have seen these backups showing as having been run within the last week or so. But when I've looked for the previous 2 nights, the SSD backup has run, but not the HD backup. Both the 2 source drives & 2 destination partitions on 1 external drive seem to be mounted.

The really strange thing is I can't find any significant reference to the missing HD backups in the Superduper logs or in the Console All Messages logs. The only items containing "SuperDuper" in the latter are:

}

NSAccessibilityErrorCodeExceptionInfo = "-25205";
}

Are these significant? How do you suggest I proceed?

Thanks!

Dave

Hi, Dave.

You should set the wake event for ONE minute before the scheduled copy time. Otherwise, your Mac will likely go to sleep before the backup runs (it doesn't wait the full time for your normal sleep).

The Accessibility exceptions are fine and not related to the copy. They usually have to do with voice recognition/dictation/control programs.

Hi Dave,

That didn't solve the problem. AFAIK, that or anything else related to Superduper hasn't changed in quite some time. But it's possible something installed an update I don't know about or remember.

What next?

Thanks.

Dave

So, if you edit the schedule and tell it to run a few minutes from "now", does that work?

Hi Dave. That worked!

It just occurred to me ... when the problem happened, it was the 2nd backup that worked. But it didn't start until 314AM, though scheduled for 3AM. Presumably, the 1st backup caused a delay between 3AM & 314AM, though there were no signs of it running.

Any idea why the problem occurred?

Now, should I just change the 2 schedules back to 3AM & see if it works.

Thanks.

Dave

That certainly seems weird. I don't know why it would cause a delay if it wasn't running.
