Backblaze is backing up Smart Sync’d files
I turned on Smart Sync (in our business account) and it seemed to be working as promised, until Backblaze kicked in and started backing up all 1.8TB of our “online only” files. What gives?
- When a file is marked as online only, if that file is accessed, Dropbox will download the file and mark it as Local. This is how you're able to open a file that's marked as online only.
Best guess, BackBlaze is trying to access the file to back it up, so Dropbox is downloading it and marking it as Local again. You'll probably need to add an exclusion in your backup set for those files/folders that are marked as online only.

Hi I'm having the same Problem on my Mac with the backup software "ChronoSync". Their support told me the same "make an exclusion rule for 'online only' files. My problem is: I don't know which file attribues define a files es 'online only'. In other words: which settings do I have to take in my rule so it detects the 'online only' files and ignores/skips them?
Thanks in advance!!!
