I've seen Bat hijack output away from an open bconsole, though I'm not
sure whether this would also prevent output from appearing in the log. If
so, I would consider it a bug. This might not be a problem if the
concurrent connection limit is increased.

Excluding a fair chunk of backup prime time every night is silly.
Scheduling/scripting around the specific dates for everything is too
laborious and error prone. Fixing it by hand later is a pain if you deal
with a lot of backups.
Setting the server to UTC seems the best option, except for something like
Windows, which always expects the RTC to be local. We have a lot of dumb
*IX apps that simply assume local time too, unfortunately.
The best solution would be for Bacula to translate time to UTC internally
for scheduling, everything external such as logfiles, scheduling stanzas
in config etc. would remain in the user's locale.
Until then maybe you can combine canceling the job with a scripted check
for date.
