APFS checks

If your Mac is running macOS 11.0 Big Sur, the APFS button will obtain an extract from the Time Machine entries in the log which will help trace problems and the progress of backups made to APFS volumes.

For the selected time period, this lists major events which should occur during each back up made to an APFS volume. It includes full breakdowns of the estimated content to be backed up, and an analysis of how each item was backed up once the process is completed.

Backing up to an APFS volume is a new feature in Big Sur, and is likely to evolve rapidly. T2M2 will be updated to accommodate those changes, but be aware that there may be times when it sees things which it can’t interpret properly. Big Sur also doesn’t enable T2M2 to perform all the analyses which it can in previous versions of macOS. This is due to the different messages it writes in the log. As it evolves, T2M2 will be able to perform fuller analysis.
