Creating a Bucket for Roving Edge Infrastructure

Describes how to create a object storage bucket on your Roving Edge Infrastructure devices.

    1. In the Device Console, open the navigation menu and select Storage > Object Storage & Archive Storage. The Buckets page is displayed. All buckets are listed in tabular form.

    2. Click Create Bucket. The Create Bucket dialog box appears.

    3. Enter a name in the Bucket Name box. The system generates a default bucket name that reflects the current year, month, day, and time, for example bucket-20190306-1359. If you change this default to any other bucket name, use letters, numbers, dashes, underscores, and periods. Avoid entering confidential information.

    4. Select Enable Object Versioning if you want to apply versioning to all objects that you upload. See Object Versioning.

    5. Click Create.

    The bucket is created and you can start uploading objects.

  • Use the oci os bucket create command and required parameters to create a object storage bucket on your Roving Edge Infrastructure devices:

    oci os bucket create --compartment_id compartment_ocid --name name [OPTIONS]

    For example:

    oci os bucket create --name sample_test_bucket
    {
      "data": {
        "approximate-count": null,
        "approximate-size": null,
        "auto-tiering": null,
        "compartment-id": "ocid1.tenancy.orei..exampleuniqueID",
        "created-by": null,
        "defined-tags": null,
        "etag": "87b5810e-ae30-4b02-a5cd-6eede4233259",
        "freeform-tags": null,
        "id": "ocid1.bucket.orei.orei-1..exampleuniqueID",
        "is-read-only": null,
        "kms-key-id": null,

        "object-events-enabled": null,
        "object-lifecycle-policy-etag": null,
        "public-access-type": null,
        "replication-enabled": null,
        "storage-tier": null,
        "time-created": "2023-06-02T12:40:22.195000+00:00",
        "versioning": "Disabled"
      },
      "etag": "87b5810e-ae30-4b02-a5cd-6eede4233259"
