Gcrane / Set Maximum Number Of Concurrent Copies

Set Maximum Number Of Concurrent Copies

Configures the maximum number of jobs for concurrent image copying operations.

$
Terminal
gcrane copy <source> <target> -j <nr_of_copies>

When To Use

When managing a large number of images to ensure system resources are optimized during copy operations.

Pro Tip

Monitor system load before setting high numbers for the -j parameter; overloading may degrade performance.

Anatomy of Output

Understanding the result

Setting maximum concurrent jobs to: 4 Concurrent Job Limit

Indicates the number of parallel jobs being set.

Starting copy operations: source-image-path to target-image-path with 4 jobs. Copy Operation

Confirms the initiation of copying process.

Copy completed for 4 images. Completion Status

Indicates that operations completed successfully.

Troubleshooting

Common pitfalls

ERROR: Invalid number of jobs specified.

Solution: Ensure that the number of jobs is a positive integer.

ERROR: Unable to start copy process due to insufficient resources.

Solution: Check system resource availability before running high job concurrency.

ERROR: Copy operation failed for source-image-path

Solution: Verify that the source path is valid and accessible.
