AutoBackup killing z2m? (self.homeassistant)

I recently started using AutoBackup and every now and then, after it runs, zigbee2mqtt isn't running anymore and needs to be manually restarted. "Start on boot" and "Watchdog" are both enabled for z2m. Has anyone else experienced this?

I suppose I could add a step on to the backup automation to explicitly restart z2m, but I feel like that would just be a bandaid for a problem better fixed somewhere else. I just don't know where that might be.

Check logs or dmesg if you have access to the host. Sounds like you're running into an OOMKill situation and some containers are getting killed. Maybe see if you can limit the memory used by your backup jobs.
