What is the problem you are having with rclone?

Local cache is not getting deleted automatically after the file has been uploaded to mounted OneDrive.

I am trying to download directly to onedrive from qbittorrent. Since onedrive doesn't support streamed uploads, local caching is unavoidable if i understood it correctly.

Run the command 'rclone version' and share the full output of the command.

rclone v1.65.2

  • os/version: Microsoft Windows Server 2022 Datacenter 21H2 (64 bit)
  • os/kernel: 10.0.20348.2227 (x86_64)
  • os/type: windows
  • os/arch: amd64
  • go/version: go1.21.6
  • go/linking: static
  • go/tags: cmount

Which cloud storage system are you using? (eg Google Drive)

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

rclone mount stor: X: --vfs-cache-mode full --cache-dir E:\ --cache-tmp-upload-path E:\temp --cache-tmp-wait-time 10m

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

Default is 1 hour.

rclone mount

Those flags do nothing as they are for the cache backend.

3

I See. What mount command would you suggest to ensure the local cache is deleted automatically once the file upload to remote is completed ?

4

Really depends on what you want to happen.

--vfs-write-back duration              Time to writeback files after last use when using cache (default 5s)

Means it uploads in 5 seconds.

--vfs-cache-max-age duration           Max time since last access of objects in the cache (default 1h0m0s)

Means it stays there for 1 hour.

Configure them based on your requirements.

5

If your objective is to empty cache as soon as possible you can use:

--vfs-cache-max-age 1m --vfs-cache-max-size 1M

Flags explanation in docs.

It should delete uploaded file from cache in 1min max

Thanks, this worked.
