NAME
swift-proxy-server - OpenStack Swift proxy server.
SYNOPSIS
/usr/lib/swift/swift-proxy-server [CONFIG] [-h|--help]
[-v|--verbose]
DESCRIPTION
The Swift Proxy Server is responsible for tying together the
rest of the Swift architecture. For each request, it will
look up the location of the account, container, or object in
the ring and route the request accordingly. The public API
is also exposed through the Proxy Server. A large number of
failures are also handled in the Proxy Server. For example,
if a server is unavailable for an object PUT, it will ask
the ring for a handoff server and route there instead. When
objects are streamed to or from an object server, they are
streamed directly through the proxy server to or from the
user the proxy server does not spool them.
The proxy server should be enabled and disabled using the
Solaris Service Management Facility, smf(5). The service
FMRI for the proxy server is:
svc:/application/openstack/swift/swift-proxy-server
