Introducing the Duplicati Portal: Your New Hub for Cloud-Based Backup Monitoring and Management

I have tracked it down, and it happens when the backup fails.
In pre-2.0.8.0 versions, it will not send any metadata, just the error messages.
This is interpreted as timestamp 0, using Unix EPOCH, meaning 1970-01-01, or ~55 years ago.
I expect a fix to arrive soon.

Not sure I follow. Is this caused by multiple backups being grouped by the same machine id?

Yeah, that would resolve everything :slight_smile:

The only open-source solution I know of is the dupReport monitoring solution, which is based on email reports.
