# Strange “completion” message

 * I ran a standard backup on a site. The site has some large files and the backup
   speed is further compromised by what I think is a fairly slow server.
 * I got the following message in the UpdraftPlus panel:
 * **This backup task (1bba503cb9a7) is either complete or began over 2 days ago:
   ending (1692653656.1462, ) (existing jobdata keys: ) (Aug 21 17:34:16) **
 * The total time from when I initiated the backup to checking and finding the message
   was 30-60 minutes max.
 * What does this mean? What do I have to do about it? Is it safe to assume the 
   backup is valid?

 * Hi,
 * If the backup was initiated less than an hour ago, the backup has completed.
 * Can you run another backup and post the log using a tool such as pastebin.com.
   We might be able to suggest some ways to tweak the process.
