Not sure if it is a problem with rclone, but I initiated a rclone move ... of a large file (~50GB) from local to cloud (which has enough space of-course). This operation is currently in progress.
However, I have to leave this public place (where I'm working from) in the next hour. I also did not pass the --progress argument before triggering the operation, to know how much time is remaining
TLDR: What happens to my file if this operation is interrupted?
Run the command 'rclone version' and share the full output of the command.
Do not want to interupt the operation.
Which cloud storage system are you using? (eg Google Drive)
webdav
The command you were trying to run (eg rclone copy /tmp remote:tmp)
each time rclone is run, it compares the source to the dest.
if there is a difference in modtime or size, rclone will re-copy the entire file again.
in your case, the size should not match.
also, check the dest.
if there is an orphaned file left over, delete it. with a filename of something like: aaaa.zip.*.partial
to see what rclone would do without doing it, --dry-run --vv
Hey @asdffdsa, thanks for taking the time to respond.
The operation is still in progress and, on the destination (cloud), I don't see any aaaa.zip.*.partial yet. But, maybe it will appear if/when the current rclone move aaaa.zip destination:/dir/ operation is interrupted.
I'm too scared to interrupt the operation myself, but if I understand correctly, interrupting rclone move would result in some kind of a *.partial file either on the source or on the destination (or on both?), and simply re-running the operation again should complete the "full move" of the file to the destination.
Is that a correct interpretation?
and, on the destination (cloud), I don't see any
