scpHow to run SCP in verbose mode?


To run SCP in verbose mode, use the -v flag. For example:

scp -v <source> <destination>

This will output the progress of the file transfer, including the amount of data transferred, the speed of the transfer, and the estimated time remaining.

The -v flag can be combined with other flags, such as -r for recursive transfer, -P for port number, and -C for compression.

Parts of the code:

  • -v: flag to enable verbose mode
  • <source>: the file or directory to be transferred
  • <destination>: the location to which the file or directory will be transferred
