VPS rclone — Multi-Instance Commands

Server: ssh root@85.9.215.202 Dashboard password: migration2026

1. Start 3 parallel rclone instances

First stop the single-instance service if it's still running:

systemctl stop rclone-migration 2>/dev/null
tmux kill-session -t migration 2>/dev/null

Open firewall ports for all 3 instances:

ufw allow 5572/tcp && ufw allow 5573/tcp && ufw allow 5574/tcp

Launch the 3 instances (matching the dashboard layout):

# Instance 1: C-Tech (port 5572)
rclone move dropbox:C-Tech gdrive:C-Tech --exclude "/GIT/**" \
    --update --use-server-modtime --transfers 32 --checkers 64 \
    --buffer-size 32M --drive-chunk-size 128M \
    --tpslimit 15 --tpslimit-burst 20 \
    --retries 5 --retries-sleep 10s --low-level-retries 10 \
    --ignore-errors \
    --stats 1m --stats-log-level NOTICE --stats-one-line \
    --log-file /root/migration_ctech.log --log-level INFO \
    --rc --rc-addr 0.0.0.0:5572 --rc-user admin --rc-pass migration2026 \
    --rc-enable-metrics --rc-allow-origin '*' &

# Instance 2: Productgroup (port 5573)
rclone move dropbox:Productgroup gdrive:Productgroup \
    --update --use-server-modtime --transfers 32 --checkers 64 \
    --buffer-size 32M --drive-chunk-size 128M \
    --tpslimit 15 --tpslimit-burst 20 \
    --retries 5 --retries-sleep 10s --low-level-retries 10 \
    --ignore-errors \
    --stats 1m --stats-log-level NOTICE --stats-one-line \
    --log-file /root/migration_productgroup.log --log-level INFO \
    --rc --rc-addr 0.0.0.0:5573 --rc-user admin --rc-pass migration2026 \
    --rc-enable-metrics --rc-allow-origin '*' &

# Instance 3: Other — everything else (port 5574)
rclone move dropbox: gdrive: --exclude "/GIT/**" \
    --exclude "/C-Tech/**" --exclude "/Productgroup/**" \
    --update --use-server-modtime --transfers 16 --checkers 32 \
    --buffer-size 32M --drive-chunk-size 128M \
    --tpslimit 10 --tpslimit-burst 15 \
    --retries 5 --retries-sleep 10s --low-level-retries 10 \
    --ignore-errors \
    --stats 1m --stats-log-level NOTICE --stats-one-line \
    --log-file /root/migration_rest.log --log-level INFO \
    --rc --rc-addr 0.0.0.0:5574 --rc-user admin --rc-pass migration2026 \
    --rc-enable-metrics --rc-allow-origin '*' &

Note: --tpslimit is split across instances (15+15+10=40 total) to stay within Google's API rate limits. Instance 3 gets fewer transfers/checkers since it handles the smaller remaining folders.

2. Check if rclone instances are still running

ps aux | grep rclone | grep -v grep

Or more concise:

pgrep -a rclone

To check individual log files:

tail -20 /root/migration_ctech.log
tail -20 /root/migration_productgroup.log
tail -20 /root/migration_rest.log

To check via the RC API (from the VPS itself):

curl -s -u admin:migration2026 http://localhost:5572/core/stats | head -5
curl -s -u admin:migration2026 http://localhost:5573/core/stats | head -5
curl -s -u admin:migration2026 http://localhost:5574/core/stats | head -5

3. Kill rclone instances

Kill all rclone instances at once:

pkill rclone

Kill a specific instance by port (find PID first, then kill):

# Find which PID is using a specific port
ss -tlnp | grep 5572
# or
lsof -i :5572

# Then kill by PID
kill <PID>

Or kill by log file name (since each instance has a unique log path):

# Kill only the C-Tech instance
pkill -f migration_ctech

# Kill only the Productgroup instance
pkill -f migration_productgroup

# Kill only the "rest" instance
pkill -f migration_rest

Verify migration completeness

After all instances finish:

rclone check dropbox: gdrive: --exclude "/GIT/**" --one-way

Check logs for errors:

grep -i error /root/migration_*.log | tail -30
