That's not currently possible. Objects in the cloud generally cannot be moved as they are write-once. You would have to perform a cloud copy and a delete for the objects in the cloud that moved locally - which is not something we support.

Are you using the new backup format? The new backup format includes client-side deduplication which would prevent the need to send all the matching file data a second time.

Thanks for the info. The new backup format sounds great (no need for any server-side gymnastics).

I'm on the Linux version so I've signed up for the beta when it's available.

Ok. I did not realize you were on Linux. If you move a file locally, it will look like a file delete and new file create to the OS and to our software. What happens with the locally "deleted" files in backup storage depends on the retention settings for your backup plan. If you have questions, please post what you are using and I'll be happy to review.
