If the quality of the connection between the node and the ethoscope is not good enough, the ethoscope's mariadb instance will eventually blacklist the node thus forbidding any further attempt at backing up the data.
At the moment, this can be diagnosed on the node forcing a backup from the command line
cd /opt/ethoscope-node/node_src/scripts/
sudo python ethoscope_backup.py -e 113
If there is an issue, this will return

The only way to fix this is to restore the connection, then SSH into the ethoscope and run
