In these Blogpost you can find out how to install and configure it. But how to use it? I have some example for you.

Thats for a Windows machine, on Linux only other path K:test = /home/ubuntu/myfiles

rclone sync --progress K:\test Scaleway:allmybackup

If you want to store your data directly in to the GLACIER storage you can use

rclone sync --progress --s3-storage-class=GLACIER K:\test Scaleway:allmybackup

or you can configre rclone directly to use GLACIER directy without define storage class

Simple example if you are using encryption with rclone

rclone sync --progress K:\test crypt:

Now we have more options for bandwith usage

Attention rclone is using Megabyte not Megabit 1M are 8Mbit

rclone sync --progress --log-file=rclone_log.txt --bwlimit "06:00,2M 23:00,4M" K:\test crypt:
