What is the problem you are having with rclone?
rclone sync created hundred or more (mostly empty) duplicate files in my B2 buckets
e.g.
3x7 label sheet.doc (hidden) 0 bytes 12/13/2021 09:34
3x7 label sheet.doc 30.2 KB 10/07/2018 11:27
The 2nd older files were already there - backed up from my previous NAS drive.
Recently, I copied the files locally to a new drive and NAS system and the timestamps changed - so I figured I would use the --checksum option to avoid duplication - based on timestamp.
But after I ran the rclone command (See below) all these (mostly empty) duplicate files appeared - but not for every file - just most. Some files are not duplicated.
I also tried dedupe option command but that only seems to delete other genuine duplicates I may have - not the above newly created files.
What is your rclone version (output from rclone version
)
v1.57.0
Which cloud storage system are you using? (eg Google Drive)
Backblaze b2
The command you were trying to run (eg rclone copy /tmp remote:tmp
)
rclone sync -P --checksum --exclude-if-present .ignore /mnt/media/Data BackB2:MyBucketName
The rclone config contents with secrets removed.
[BackB2]
type = b2
account = <removed>
key = <removed>
A log from the command with the -vv
flag
So I have not rerun the command again as I don't want to create even more duplicates and I am not even sure it will have the same effect...Any ideas without having to get the verbose output?
