# rclone check
|
|
|
|
Checks the files in the source and destination match.
|
|
|
|
## Synopsis
|
|
|
|
|
|
Checks the files in the source and destination match. It compares
|
|
sizes and hashes (MD5 or SHA1) and logs a report of files which don't
|
|
match. It doesn't alter the source or destination.
|
|
|
|
If you supply the --size-only flag, it will only compare the sizes not
|
|
the hashes as well. Use this for a quick check.
|
|
|
|
If you supply the --download flag, it will download the data from
|
|
both remotes and check them against each other on the fly. This can
|
|
be useful for remotes that don't support hashes or if you really want
|
|
to check all the data.
|
|
|
|
If you supply the --one-way flag, it will only check that files in source
|
|
match the files in destination, not the other way around. Meaning extra files in
|
|
destination that are not in the source will not trigger an error.
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
rclone check source:path dest:path [flags]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Options
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
--download Check by downloading rather than with hash.
|
|
-h, --help help for check
|
|
--one-way Check one way only, source files must exist on remote
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
See the [global flags page](/flags/) for global options not listed here.
