This issue will only affect backup set with backup schedule that has "stop after x hours" enabled:

Cause

This is a known issue with AhsayOBM / ACB version 7.3.2.0 - 7.5.0.0.

The manual backup job should not be interrupted by scheduler even if the "stop after x hours" option is enabled (e.g. the setting should only applies to scheduled backup job).

Resolution

To resolve the issue, patch the AhsayOBM / ACB application to version 7.7.0.0 or above.
