Oracle Cloud Object Storage Support

By default, use of the FILE-BATCH variable was restricted to local mounted storage where it is possible to use network storage via mapped directories. It is now possible to use Oracle Cloud Object Storage Device 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:

Connection Details	Notes
File Adapter	Use Oracle Cloud Object Storage
REST Endpoint URL	Cloud storage’s endpoint URL. Exclude the Service Name or Container Name from the URL
User Name	The cloud username to use
Password	The corresponding password for the cloud username

• To use the definition, use the parameter in the FILE-PATH variable in the Batch Control definition or batch configuration file for relevant batch controls with the file-storage://<ExtendableLookupValue>/<serviceName> format, where <ExtendableLookupValue> is the name of the lookup value configured in F1-FileStorage and <serviceName> is the service name for the Oracle Cloud Object Storage service.
