Verify an rclone transfer with checksums

Verify an rclone transfer with checksums with a controlled test, clear verification, limits, and recovery steps.

Last reviewed

Verify an rclone transfer with checksums is easier to verify when you use one controlled item and confirm the account, workspace, and destination at each step. This guide follows the current Dosya workflow and identifies the result you should see.

Before you start

  • Open rclone configured for Dosya WebDAV in the current released client.
  • Confirm the active account and workspace, then identify completed controlled transfer.
  • Use a small non-confidential test item and record its current state before changing it.
  • Keep passwords, API keys, recovery keys, private links, and personal data out of screenshots and support messages.

Steps: verify an rclone transfer with checksums

  1. Open rclone configured for Dosya WebDAV and confirm the active account and workspace.
  2. Locate completed controlled transfer and verify its name or identifying details.
  3. Run rclone check or the supported comparison mode and record mismatches.
  4. Read the displayed warning, permission, progress, or confirmation state before leaving the screen.
  5. Confirm that source and destination contents verify or specific differences are listed.
  6. Refresh or reopen the relevant view once to verify the result persisted.

Run dry-run first and use a disposable destination before any command that can delete files. Open full-size screenshot.

Expected result

The controlled workflow completes and source and destination contents verify or specific differences are listed. The result remains visible after a refresh, reconnect, or return to the relevant screen.

Limits and important details

  • Available controls depend on the current client version, account plan, workspace role, and policy.
  • Processing, indexing, background transfer, or third-party authorization can delay a visible result.
  • For destructive, access-changing, or automation actions, validate with disposable data before applying the workflow to important files.

Troubleshooting

The expected control is missing. Return to rclone configured for Dosya WebDAV, confirm the active workspace, and check that your role and client version support the action.

The operation is rejected or stalls. Read the exact message and check permissions, locks, storage, network state, source availability, and any third-party authorization before retrying.

The result is still unclear. Repeat with one small test item, then contact support with the time, client version, workspace, and a nonsecret error or request identifier.
