Clarification on rclone mount and vts cache behavior with large data uploads

Help and Support

rclone v1.68.1

The command you were trying to run (eg rclone copy /tmp remote:tmp)

rclone mount teldrive:/ /media/6tb/teldrive --vfs-cache-mode full --allow-other --cache-dir /media/6tb/rclone-cache --bwlimit "10:00,5M 02:00,off" --low-level-retries 10 --retries -v

Please run 'rclone config redacted' and share the full output. If you get command not found, please make sure to update rclone.

Hello, everyone! For a couple of months now, I've been testing the rclone mount --> teldrive setup. It's an amazing product, and I'd like to thank you for it.

There's just one thing I’d like to clarify: if I copy a large amount of data (e.g., 100GB) to the mounted folder, this data initially appears in the mounted folder as well as in the vts folder (I’m using full cache). However, it takes some time (a day or two) for this data to be physically uploaded to Telegram.

I’ve noticed that while the data is still in the cache and hasn’t been fully uploaded to Telegram, it eventually disappears from the mounted folder after some time and remains only in the vts folder.

Perhaps I don't fully understand the mechanics of the setup (mounted folder + vts cache). Could you please clarify whether this behavior is normal, or am I missing something?

Thank you in advance!

The debug log file would show exactly what is happening.

This is not remote supported by official rclone version. You are using some custom build. So who knows what else and how it does.

4

Does the official build with Teldrive work properly, or is there a specific reason they recommend using a custom one?

5

Teldrive is not supported by rclone today.

Ideally whoever is behind it should submit PR to rclone and add it to the official version.

Thank you very much for the quick response.
