The Union mount needs to implement the optional Methods Move, Copy, DirMove etc.

Issue as references here:

https://forum.rclone.org/t/plex-gdrive-using-union-mount/7024/22?u=nimbuz

Example of error:
"2018/10/02 10:08:22 ERROR : Bull (2016)/Season 3/Bull.(2016).S03E02.Jury.Duty.HDTV-720p.KILLERS.mkv.partial~: Dir.Rename error: Fs “union root ‘’” can’t rename files (no server side Move or Copy)"

Tentative solution: "The Union mount needs to implement the optional Methods Move, Copy, DirMove etc. It might be better to embed the fs for this"

Here is an initial attempt at this

https://beta.rclone.org/branch/v1.43-130-gd90eccd6-fix-2619-union-beta/ (uploaded in 15-30 mins)

can you have a go and see if it fixes that problem?

This fix only has software for windows and osx. I'm running linux, so unfortunately I can't test it with those packages, sorry!
You will need to test if Radarr can move files into the folder of a vfs-mount and rename them.

@nimbuz the build failed, I've kicked it and the linux binaries are there now - can you have a test please?

Thanks

@ncw Since I run unraid, it’s harder for me to test betas. It requires me to create a plugin from the file. I tried my best at a plugin, and I think I made it work (https://github.com/nimbuz/rclone-unraid/blob/beta/plugin/rclone.plg). However I'm unable to create a union remote through the config. You seeing the same?
I installed it on windows as well, and also not getting union as a remote.

@nimbuz - sorry I'm not an unraid user, so I'm not sure what is going on :-( The beta shouldn't have changed the union backend config at all.

@ncw Unfortunately I won't be able to test it on my system, before the fix is pushed to the main beta branch. However the implementation of --move should fix the issue. I tried reinstalling the fix on windows, and I'm seeing the union remote now, so it seems to be working.
I won't be able to test it though, sorry.

OK, I've merged that to master and it will be in the latest beta in 15-30 mins.

I’ve been running the beta for a few days now, and it’s running wonderfully. Good job on it!
The way it copies to the union folder, and then afterwards moves it to the correct local folder seems a bit slow however (I assume that’s what it’s doing), but it’s obviously not too big of an issue with fast hard drives.
