S3 was, maybe still is, experiencing rolling outages/delays. I don't know any details, but it's out of our control.

Or, do you mean this is a persistent issue not just in the past day or two?

Joe,
Running on AWS LightSail VM. In last 48 hours 1 in 20 S3 backups failed. Prior to that 1 in 400 backups failed with the 503 event.
The hourly scheduled backup typically under 50 MB.
If the virtualmin backup code already has retry logic suggested by AWS document, the issue is with Amazon. I will open an Amazon ticket if the situation continues.
I don't know for sure. Jamie wrote that code...since it's not just happening today, it may be something we need to look at. I assumed we were gracefully handling problems and I don't think we've had other similar reports lately, but it's worth looking into.

My LightSail VM instance talking to AWS region which had(?) S3 storage issue. Maybe worth reviewing code to take into account AWS notion of degraded service latency. Document when error thrown to check S3 health
