What exactly are you looking for in monitoring it? The -v should give you a verbose output. If you want more details, I think you can specify multiple -v to give you a more verbose output.

No need to reinvent the wheel. I went over the FAQ and the documentation for Delta Copy. Delta Copy does not provide any means to continually monitor an on-going rsync process. The most they do is: | Question: What type of logging is available in DeltaCopy | | Answer: Besides the logging options available in Rsync, | DeltaCopy provides two additional logs: | | deltac.log - available on DeltaCopy client | DeltaService.log - available on DeltaCopy server | | deltac.log file contains information about the DeltaCopy | client. It logs a message when a profile is run and | notifications emails are sent to the user. | | DeltaService.log is available where DeltaCopy server is | installed and contains messages when service is started or | stopped. | | It is important to know that rsync supports additional logging | that can be configured by specifying additional parameters | either on DeltaCopy client or server. Please refer to rsync | documentation for more information about logging options | available for rsync. | | When rsync.exe is executed in the back-ground by DeltaCopy, it | generates status messages which are sent to standard output. | DeltaCopy captures these messages and sends them via email. Observe that Delta Copy relies on rsync itself to provide insight into the status of the on-going transaction. So the question remains: In regard to output, rsync has the following features: a) -v option with various levels of verbosity b) --stats c) --log-file=foo d) messages rsync prints to stdout e) messages rsync prints to stderr. Where can one find an explanation of the format, content and interpretation of the outputs (a-e)?
