Thanks for the logs.
You can ignore this harmless error. It is a known issue and we plan to address this in a future release (it won't be addressed in 6.5.0).

do you have backup jobs running at those times?

Yes, my manager reminded me that we have NAS-NAS replication between the devices, and those jobs accidentally included snapshots. I've just disabled them, so I'll keep an eye on the logs.
