The GET Bucket consistency request allows you to determine the consistency being applied to a particular bucket.

The default consistency is set to guarantee read-after-write for newly created objects.

You must have the s3:GetBucketConsistency permission, or be account root, to complete this operation.

Request example

GET /bucket?x-ntap-sg-consistency HTTP/1.1
Date: date
Authorization: authorization string
Host: host

Response

In the response XML, <Consistency> will return one of the following values:

Consistency Description

all

All nodes receive the data immediately, or the request will fail.

strong-site

Guarantees read-after-write consistency for all client requests within a site.

read-after-new-write

(Default) Provides read-after-write consistency for new objects and eventual consistency for object updates. Offers high availability and data protection guarantees. Recommended for most cases.

available
