      It's showing a DNS failure. Try entering acb.netgate.com in Diag > DNS Lookup and see if it resolves against all the configured servers.

      What pfSense version are you running?

            Hmm, does it fail every time or intermittently?

            It doesn't seem to be a backend issue, ACB is working fine for me.

              I thought it had been working fine but I only noticed in the last few days that it had been failing recently but not sure when it started.

                If you manually make a backup does it fail every time though?

                  @stephenw10 Tried backing up manually and it says "Backup Queued Successfully"

                    Looks like it backed up successfully!

                      Hmm, so maybe a temporary DNS issue?

                        @stephenw10 Possibly, I'll monitor it when it tries an automatic backup at 2am tomorrow and see what happens!
