NagiosXI Scheduled Backups not worked these days ...

The production NagiosXI server(twtpelnag05p) had Scheduled Backups every Sunday 5:18PM, to the backup NagiosXI server(twtplnag02p), and already been working for a while, but these days it seems no backup any more?! didn't find backup files at backup NagiosXI server(twtplnag02p) and not seeing error message?!

testing SSH seems normal, not seeing backup files on 22 and 29 December, and file is only 953MB on 5 January(should be at least 2GB), the hard disk space looks enough.

You do have a Dec 22nd and 29th backup. They are the files nagios-1577006281.tar.gz, and nagios-1577611081.tar.gz. For some reason, it took extremely long to transfer the files. Or maybe the date or timezone on either the Nagios server, or the server receiving the backups, is not set correctly?

Regarding the Jan 5th backup being only ~900MB, is it possible that it's still transferring? Given that the last two backups finished the following day, it stands to reason that the Jan 5th backup will finish on Jan 6th.
