How can we have Duplicati test/repair ALL remote index files?

v2.1.0.119_canary_2025-05-29 release note has this:

To remedy existing data, the test method can now be run and only check index files (--full-remote-verification=indexesonly).
By default, any defective index files that are found will be replaced with correct versions, so simply running the test command with a large sample size will fix the backup.

UI Commandline can show that like below. Sample size (e.g. all) is Commandline Argument.

EDIT 1:

We baked the repair process into the test process, so whenever Duplicati tests some random files, it detects if they are affected by the issue, and if so, fixes it by uploading a correct index files.

so I don’t think any special settings are needed, but if you want a faster run, IndexesOnly avoids downloading the large dblock files. If you want a sooner more certain test, the manual run works.
