What is the problem you are having with rclone?
I'm trying to find a solution to have the rclone VFS cache only upload files at night. I previously tried to use --bwlimit but it seems it can only be crippled down to 1 byte a second but never fully stopped. My next try was setting Transfers to 0 via
rclone rc options/set --json '{"main": {"Transfers": 0}}'
This brings all uploads to a complete halt and puts all updated/created files to the queue. Now when setting Transfers back to 4
rclone rc options/set --json '{"main": {"Transfers": 4}}'
rclone doesnt start clearing the queue but instead keeps idling until the next change to the VFS cache (either creating or updating a file).
Run the command 'rclone version' and share the full output of the command.
rclone v1.65.2
- os/version: debian 11.9 (64 bit)
- os/kernel: 6.2.16-20-bpo11-pve (x86_64)
- os/type: linux
- os/arch: amd64
- go/version: go1.21.6
- go/linking: static
- go/tags: none
Which cloud storage system are you using? (eg Google Drive)
2x Onedrive Business through rclone union
The command you were trying to run (eg rclone copy /tmp remote:tmp)
/usr/bin/rclone mount OnedriveUnion: /mnt/onedrive --vfs-cache-mode full --tpslimit 3 --tpslimit-burst 0 --log-level INFO --rc
Please run 'rclone config redacted' and share the full output. If you get command not found, please make sure to update rclone.

A log from the command that you were trying to run with the -vv flag
This is the log when Transfers is set to 0 and a file is added to the VFS cached remote.
2024/03/07 14:07:12 INFO : test.file: vfs cache: queuing for upload in 5s
This is the log after Transfer was set back to 4 and rclone is in idle instead of uploading the file in the queue.
