22.1 and 22.7 create Nextcloud backups twice?

[mzurhorst]

Hi all,

I mentioned this already in the 22.1 legacy forum [1], but the behavior still exists after upgrading to the recent 22.7 version.
I defined a Cronjob for a nightly backup of my Opnsense, which was supposed to be executed 1:30am.

When I log into my Nextcloud, I am observing that the backup is executed twice every night:

• 1:00am
• 1:30am

Attached is my Cronjob definition as well as the uploaded results in Nextcloud.
Am I configuring this wrongly?

Best regards,
   Marcus

Ok, not a bug, as I learned.

The 1:00am backup is hardcoded and happens as soon as the Nextcloud remote account is configured.
The possibility to define a remote backup cronjob is there for additional cronjobs only.
