I think it is caused by congestion on your backup device/network. When
you do a manual backup there is only 1 backup running concurrently but
when the scheduled backup runs it will start backup concurrently if the
VM's which is to be backed up is running on different Proxmox host. To
overcome this problem you should make a scheduled backup for each
proxmox host running on a different time scale so that there at any
time only runs a scheduled backup of one VM.
