Encrypted backups still not smart updating in Catalina 10.15

FYI: It seems that encrypted backups that were encrypted after first performing a full un-encrypted full initial backup in SuperDuper! 3.3 Beta 2 (v119.3) (choosing erase first as recommended in the attached screenshot) still fail in later subsequent smart update attempts.

Hopefully this can be resolved, since I would prefer to secure my external backup images at rest with encryption.

Thanks.

This is fixed in the next beta. If you're desperate, write to me at support...

Shouldn't be too long to wait.

Encrypted backups not booting

Unfortunately, encrypted backups will not boot in Catalina 10.15.1 and Beta 119.5.

The backup job processes as normal however when you try to boot into it, all you get is a black screen with the white apple logo.

I ended up wiping the disk with disk utility and formatting it back to un-encrypted APFS so I can maintain a workable backup in the interim.

I would like to maintain a form of a "3 2 1 backup" strategy with offsite backups, and leaving them offsite un-encrypted is not wise. Hopefully this can get sorted out. Thanks.

I've just re-checked this case, and it's working fine here...I haven't tried an OS upgrade in between copies (just because I have to go back to 10.15.0, which I'm in the process of doing), but I can't reproduce.

Are you sure you waited long enough?

Probably want to move this to support email so we can go through the various things...
