Veritas™ Access 7.2.1

Amazon S3 provides cloud storage for the Internet. To upload your unstructured data (photos, videos, and documents), you first need to create a bucket in one of the AWS regions. You can then upload any number of objects to the bucket. You can then upload any number of objects to the bucket.

Buckets and objects are resources, and Amazon S3 provides APIs for managing the buckets and the objects.

Veritas Access supports the following methods for accessing the buckets and the objects:

  • Path-style method

  • Virtual-hosted-style method

    When using the virtual hosted-style method, the bucket_name.s3.cluster_name should be DNS resolvable.

Operations on buckets

Buckets are created by AWS S3 clients by calling the standard AWS S3 APIs to the Veritas Access S3 server. For creating a bucket, you need the endpoint of the Veritas Access server, access key, and the secret key. The endpoint of the Veritas Access object server is s3.cluster_name:8143.

The Veritas Access object server can also be accessed using the fully qualified domain name:

            
s3.cluster_name.fqdn:8143

You can create the access keys and secret keys for existing users from Settings > Service Management.

Make sure that you associate one (or more) of the VIPs of the Veritas Access cluster to s3.cluster_name.fadn in the client's DNS server.

The following S3 bucket operations are supported:

  • Setting and removing S3 storage pools.

  • Starting and stopping the object server.

Operations on objects

Amazon S3 enables you to store, retrieve, and delete objects. You can retrieve an entire object or a portion of an object.
