I have two Home Assistant servers (vers at end). Both backup to their local stage and also to an NFS Share. One has stopped working, leaving this info in the Supervisor Log (I pressed the backup button at 07:13:00):

TimeoutError: [Errno 110] Operation timed oute[0m
By a process of trial & elimination, the task that breaks the backup is the History Switch.
Turn it Off and the backup compleates. Turn it On, start the Backup and watch the share folder (in another PC) and I see the file size increase up to about its full (~200MB) size before it cleans up and reports the error. The working HA backup file is over twice this size and there is plenty of room on the share.
Any pointers on what I can check next?
