azure-storage-azcopy: [Question] Error: Combination 'Localfile' not supported for sync command (File Storage)

Azcopy 10.0.2 Preview - Win 7 - Powershell

The following string works for a “copy” but when using sync it throws the error further below .\azcopy sync "C:\GCDS_dev" "https://azgcdsdevst1.file.core.windows.net/gcdsbuild/GQtest?<retracted_key>" --recursive

error parsing the input given by the user. Failed with error source ‘C:\GCDS_dev’ / destination ‘https://azgcdsdevst1.fi le.core.windows.net/gcdsbuild/GQtest?“retracted_key”’ combination ‘LocalFile’ not supported for sync command

Any Ideas?

Do we have ETA for adding support of syncing between Local and Azure Files?

We will do this for out 10.9 release. @adreed-msft to make it happen.

Parity between robocopy and azcopy would make cloud migrations much simpler. +1 for local to file sync.

That sounds fine.

Yes that’s right, sure i’ll create an issue over there so you guys can sync

We run some stuff in AKS which mounts from Fileshares, in our CD pipe we’d love to have this sync capability so we never get diffs. It’s not necessarily time sensitive but would make our life a lot easier 😃

@zezha-msft nicest guy ever… I hope they pay you well

Hi @oscarwest, I apologize for the inconvenience.

We had to do some major refactoring, so this feature is not implemented yet. But it will much easier to implement once we get to it.
