Research direction
Start by reproducing the external-storage configuration from the issue with the Backblaze S3 endpoint and bucket name. Trace the configuration validation that reports the DNS compatibility error and compare it with the documented Backblaze setup. Done means the valid bucket configuration is accepted and the bucket can be mounted.
