rSync to do?

[georgelza]

Hi guys
I have a rSync copy to google job, moved 3 directories to my master directory that is copied to google,
I know the 3 directories are like 500MB... but rSync is telling me it has 70GB to do.
Where can IU see what it is thinking it needs to do.

I don't use rsync tasks in the GUI, so can't be sure, but in most of the other tasks lists, you can see the status and click on it (where it says running, success, failed, etc.) and see a log/progress.

Also in some other task lists you can use a "dry run" option to get a report of what will be copied, so maybe that's what you need (if it exists for rsync).

Correct, you can click on the task/Cloud Sync Tasks, you can then click on the relevant task (I have 3) it then shows you how many files done, how many to do, current rate, current volume done, volume to do (my scenario 70GB) and then ETA. (thesis where I saw 70GB, expecting to see 500MB.

You also have /var/tmp/middlewared/log/job/ where there is a process file log file, that it is currently busy with, this gets cleared out when the job is finished...

I discovered some how a directory got moved into this to be synced master directory that should not have been there yet (as I know it's 80GB, so plan was to rather eat it smaller bites at a time).
Was wondering if there is a log or file that records the todo list/subdirectory list where it keeps track of whats to do... and maybe even a whats been done.

You've just mentioned the exhaustive list of what's available in the GUI.

If you run rsync manually in verbose mode, you can certainly get the information on what's already been done (and if you dry-run it first, you can deduce what's remaining).

never run it at command line...
will have to do some digging.
