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

92405863

An error occurs when creating an S3 user or bucket. The reason for failure is detailed in the error message. Follow the error codes specified for the user or bucket endpoints to see details for the failure.

92405863

Failed to create bucket \"{bucket name}\". Reason: "Failed to create bucket \"{bucket name}\" for SVM \"{svm.name}\". Reason: Bucket name \"{bucket name}\" contains invalid characters. Valid characters for a bucket name are 0-9, a-z, ".", and "-". ". Resolve all the issues and retry the operation.

92405863

Failed to create bucket \"{bucket name}\". Reason: "Failed to create bucket \"{bucket name}\" for SVM \"{svm.name}\". Reason: Invalid QoS policy group specified \"{qos policy}\". The specified QoS policy group has a min-throughput value set, and the workload being assigned resides on a platform that does not support min-throughput or the cluster is in a mixed version state and the effective cluster version of ONTAP does not support min-throughput on this platform. Resolve all the issues and retry the operation.

92405863

Failed to create bucket \"{bucket name}\". Reason: "User(s) "{user name(s)}\" specified in the principal list do not exist for SVM \"{svm.name}\". Use the "object-store-server user create" command to create a user.". Resolve all the issues and retry the operation.

92405863

Failed to create user \"{user name}\". Reason: "SVM "Cluster" is not a data SVM. Specify a data SVM.". Resolve all the issues and retry the operation.

92405884

An object store server can only be created on a data SVM. An object store server can also be created on a system SVM on a mixed platform cluster.
