If your system is configured to run at least an incremental every
night and the backuppc service is running, the things that might keep
a system from being backed up would be:

  Not enough disk space on the archive volume at the start time.

  Non-default (and incorrect) WakeupSchedule.

  $Conf{MaxBackups} jobs already running during the backup window (not
in a blackout period).

  BackupDisable set to 1 or 2.

I think any other reason would at least leave a log entry about
starting and failing - like the ping command failing.
