Create S3 server, users, and buckets configurations

Contributors

POST /protocols/s3/services

Introduced In: 9.7

Creates an S3 server, users, and buckets configurations.

Important notes

  • Each SVM can have one S3 server configuration.

  • One or more buckets and users can also be created using this end-point.

  • If creating a user configuration fails, buckets are not created either and already created users are not saved.

  • If creating a bucket configuration fails, all buckets already created are saved with no new buckets created.

Required properties

  • svm.uuid - Existing SVM in which to create an S3 server configuration.

  • enabled - Specifies the state of the server created.

  • comment - Any information related to the server created.

Default property values

  • comment - ""

  • enabled - true

  • vserver object-store-server create

  • vserver object-store-server bucket create

  • vserver object-store-server bucket policy statement create

  • vserver object-store-server bucket policy-statement-condition create

  • vserver object-store-server user create

duration

string

The duration over which this sample is calculated. The time durations are represented in the ISO-8601 standard format. Samples can be calculated over the following durations:

iops

iops

The rate of I/O operations observed at the storage object.

latency

latency

The round trip latency in microseconds observed at the storage object.

status

string

Any errors associated with the sample. For example, if the aggregation of data over multiple nodes fails then any of the partial errors might be returned, "ok" on success, or "error" on any internal uncategorized failure. Whenever a sample collection is missed but done at a later time, it is back filled to the previous 15 second timestamp and tagged with "backfilled_data". "Inconsistent_ delta_time" is encountered when the time between two collections is not the same for all nodes. Therefore, the aggregated value might be over or under inflated. "Negative_delta" is returned when an expected monotonically increasing value has decreased in value. "Inconsistent_old_data" is returned when one or more nodes do not have the latest data.

throughput

throughput

The rate of throughput bytes per second observed at the storage object.

timestamp

string

The timestamp of the performance data.

iops_raw

iops_raw

iops_raw

The number of I/O operations observed at the storage object. This should be used along with delta time to calculate the rate of I/O operations per unit of time.

latency_raw

latency_raw

The raw latency in microseconds observed at the storage object. This should be divided by the raw IOPS value to calculate the average latency per I/O operation.

status

string

Any errors associated with the sample. For example, if the aggregation of data over multiple nodes fails then any of the partial errors might be returned, "ok" on success, or "error" on any internal uncategorized failure. Whenever a sample collection is missed but done at a later time, it is back filled to the previous 15 second timestamp and tagged with "backfilled_data". "Inconsistent_delta_time" is encountered when the time between two collections is not the same for all nodes. Therefore, the aggregated value might be over or under inflated. "Negative_delta" is returned when an expected monotonically increasing value has decreased in value. "Inconsistent_old_data" is returned when one or more nodes do not have the latest data.

throughput_raw

throughput_raw

Throughput bytes observed at the storage object. This should be used along with delta time to calculate the rate of throughput bytes per unit of time.

timestamp

string

The timestamp of the performance data.

s3_user

This is a container of S3 users.

Name Type Description

access_key

string

Specifies the access key for the user.

comment

Specifies the certificate that will be used for creating HTTPS connections to the S3 server.

comment

string

Can contain any additional information about the server being created or modified.

enabled

boolean

Specifies whether the S3 server being created or modified should be up or down.

is_http_enabled

boolean

Specifies whether HTTP is enabled on the S3 server being created or modified. By default, HTTP is disabled on the S3 server.

is_https_enabled

boolean

Specifies whether HTTPS is enabled on the S3 server being created or modified. By default, HTTPS is enabled on the S3 server.

metric

metric

Performance numbers, such as IOPS latency and throughput, for SVM protocols.

name

string

Specifies the name of the S3 server. A server name can contain 1 to 253 characters using only the following combination of characters':' 0-9, A-Z, a-z, ".", and "-".

integer

Specifies the HTTPS listener port for the S3 server. By default, HTTPS is enabled on port 443.

statistics

statistics

These are raw performance numbers, such as IOPS latency and throughput for SVM protocols. These numbers are aggregated across all nodes in the cluster and increase with the uptime of the cluster.
