Best solution for this one...  Run your backup server on UTC time rather than local.

Dear Bacula Users,

I think that I've found a minor bug in bacula concerning the adjustment
of clocks on the start of daylight saving (or summertime).

I run a daily schedule on 02:00 AM which was skipped last night, when
the clocks advanced one hour forward from 02:00 AM to 03:00 AM when the
daylight saving hast started in central Europe.

For me it is not a big issue to loose one daily backup cycle but I guess
this might not be the case for others. I would think that even in such
circumstances the planned schedule at 02:00 AM should have take place.

Kind regards,

Frank.
