Rclone, cache and samba

Bonjour,

I would like to use a device as a gateway between my computer and cloud.
PC --- samba share --- rclone --- Onedrive.

I would like to use this configuration for my photo for example. I take picture, use lightroom to manage same as local, if picture not in cache (10Go for example) it's read on cloud.
I would like to use samba share because sometime my connection is very low and no need to leave the computer power on.

I try some configuration but I don't understand why, it's so long.

Any idea?

What is your rclone version (output from rclone version )

rclone v1.50.2

  • os/arch: linux/amd64
  • go version: go1.14.4

Which OS you are using and how many bits (eg Windows 7, 64 bit)

PC windows10 64bit,
server debian 64bit on VM

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

One-drive

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

rclone mount onedrive-storage3:/ /mnt/onedrive-storage3/ --allow-non-empty --allow-other --vfs-cache-mode full --cache-dir /var/tmp/onedrive-storage3 --cache-writes -vv

It's works but file one file is upload very fast ( in cache I supposed), freeze until file is upload one drive, then second file very fast then freeze, etc.

There's no debug log attached so it would be hard to understand what's happening. Also, that is a old version. I'd upgrade to the latest before you debug further. There were significant improvements to vfs in later versions.

Just upgrade and the situation is much better.
I will check option and come back.

Many thanks
