Oracle Cloud Object Storage Support
Note: Prior to using this capability, the Oracle Cloud Object Storage Service must be purchased and configured. Networking between on-premise or other cloud services must be installed, configured and operational before using this facility.
By default, use of FILE-PATH batch variable was restricted to local mounted storage where it is possible to use network storage through mapped directories. It is now possible to use Oracle Cloud Object Storage Service as a source of import files or locations to write files.
To use this feature, Oracle recommends the following:
Create or Edit a lookup value for the F1-FileStorage Extendable Lookup for each Cloud Service used with the following Connection Details:

To use the definition, the parameter should be used in the FILE-PATH variable, in either the Batch Control definition or batch configuration file for relevant batch controls in the format:
file-storage://<ExtendableLookupValue>
Where:
<ExtendableLookupValue> is the name of lookup value configure in the F1-FileStorage Extendable Lookup
Additional settings may be added to FILE-PATH to support virtual folders if necessary.
