estimatedFoldersToTransfer

The number of directories that DataSync expects to transfer over the network. This value is calculated as DataSync prepares directories to transfer.

How this gets calculated depends primarily on your task’s transfer mode configuration:

  • If TranserMode is set to CHANGED - The calculation is based on comparing the content of the source and destination locations and determining the difference that needs to be transferred. The difference can include:

    • Anything that's added or modified at the source location.

    • Anything that's in both locations and modified at the destination after an initial transfer (unless OverwriteMode is set to NEVER).

  • If TranserMode is set to ALL - The calculation is based only on the items that DataSync finds at the source location.

Applies only to Enhanced mode tasks.
