So, let me tell you about how I was getting safety frozen, and why.
I had a Mac which crashed and that had a whole bunch of files go missing. Backblaze didn't want to do backups with a huge subset of my disk files gone without having gotten notification messages from the file changes API that this stuff should be missing/was deleted. So they safety froze my machine.
It's cool that Backblaze notices this. But yes, the question of what to do next isn't clear. Does one just start a new backup? Does one scour the backup looking for anything that may be missing on your machine, now? Etc.
- cloogshicer 5y agoYes, that's exactly the issue - that I don't know if/which files are missing/corrupted.
