Using systemd is recommended. If you search the forum you'll find many examples.

hello,

--allow-non-empty is generally not a good flag to use for mounts.

what is the remote you are trying to mount?
a remote needs a : in it, and i do not see that the in "LMES - TEST - FI - Treasury"

Hi
i trying to mount a share drive with things inside, i try to remount it without the flag --allow-non-empty but the result it's same , is empty:
#rclone mount -vv --vfs-cache-max-size 10G --vfs-cache-mode full --allow-other "LMES - TEST - FI - Treasury" /TEST1 &

many thanks

6

what is the name of the remote
can do you rclone listremotes and post the output?

7

Hi

the remote share drive is a valid directory:

rclone listremotes

LMES - TEST - FI - Treasury:
LMES - Technology:

thanks

8

so need to use one of those remotes, make sure to include the :
remotes need to have a colon character :

https://rclone.org/docs/#copying-files-or-directories-with-in-the-names
" rclone uses : to mark a remote name"

rclone mount -vv --vfs-cache-max-size 10G --vfs-cache-mode full --allow-other "LMES - TEST - FI - Treasury:" /TEST1 &

Ok, does work fine ....
many many thanks .

Bye

10

any idea to do that mount on /etc/fstab to mount automatically on startup¿?

thanks

11

i am not a linux expert but i am sure you can search the internet.

i know many rclone users use systemd, so you can search to forum for that.

12

yes but what is the correct syntax for that, i know very well the Linux system but i'm not able to look the correct syntax.

13

as i suggested, search the forum for systemd

14

these servers are CentOs 6 and 7, i tested the mount on /etc/fstab but doesn't work, i put it in /etc/rc.local file does work , but my idea is put it in /etc/fstab, my problem is look the correct syntax.

15

For CentOS 6 and 7, you should use systemd like noted above. The link shared has an example and if you have a question on how to use it, please ask.

16

Thank you for help me, in my opinion is easier to do the automount in /etc/rc.local than to create a service in the system.

cat /etc/rc.local

rclone mount -vv --vfs-cache-max-size 10G --vfs-cache-mode full --allow-other "LMES - TEST - FI - Treasury:" /TEST1 &

does work fine

17

Sure, but you can't stop / start it nor does it track failures.

That also doesn't allow for the networking services to start up as that's why systemd is a better solution.

If that works and meets your requirements though, by all means use it.

18

Ok
many thanks everyone.
