I rebooted the system and then ran:

* systemctl status backuppc.service**
**● backuppc.service - LSB: Launch backuppc server**
**   Loaded: loaded (/etc/init.d/backuppc; generated)**
**   Active: active (running) since Fri 2021-06-11 15:59:17 PDT; 6min ago**
**     Docs: man:systemd-sysv-generator(8)**
**  Process: 706 ExecStart=/etc/init.d/backuppc start (code=exited, 
status=0/SUCCESS)**
**    Tasks: 2 (limit: 4915)**
**   Memory: 26.9M**
**   CGroup: /system.slice/backuppc.service**
**           ├─764 /usr/bin/perl /usr/share/backuppc/bin/BackupPC -d**
**           └─765 /usr/bin/perl 
/usr/share/backuppc/bin/BackupPC_trashClean*

BackupPC seems to have loaded and started on boot up. Does this help.
