Running rclone move with Progress

To display progress while using the rclone move command, use the --progress flag. This will provide real-time updates on the transfer process.

Basic Usage:

rclone move source_path remote:destination_path --progress

Breakdown:

• rclone move: This command initiates the move operation.
• source_path: Specifies the local or remote source directory.
• remote:destination_path: Indicates the remote destination path.
• --progress: Enables the progress bar display.

Example:

rclone move /path/to/local/files mydrive:/backup --progress

Additional Options:

You can combine the --progress flag with other useful options:

• --verbose (-v): Provides more detailed output, including file names and transfer speeds.
• --delete-empty-src-dirs: Deletes empty source directories after the move.
• --transfers: Limits the number of concurrent transfers.
• --max-transfer: Sets a maximum transfer size.

Example with additional options:

rclone move /path/to/local/files mydrive:/backup --progress -v --delete-empty-src-dirs --transfers 4 --max-transfer 100M

Tips:

• For larger transfers, consider using --transfers to optimize performance based on your system resources.
• The --max-transfer option can be helpful for managing network bandwidth.
• If you need more detailed logging, consider using the --log-file flag to save the output to a file.
