11.04 - What happens if Déjà Dup tries to back up to a disconnected external disc?




I have just installed Déjà Dup on my (11.04) laptop and have scheduled automatic weekly backups to an external hard disc which is not always connected to the laptop.



What will happen if a scheduled backup is attempted when the external disc is not connected?



From v14 release note:




The most visible new feature is much better support for external drives. Now Deja Dup will notice if the drive is not connected when a scheduled backup occurs, and will wait for it to be connected. It will notify you that it is waiting.
