Object API Configuration

The object API service enables an appliance to save data as storage objects into the Oracle ZFS filesystem using the HTTP protocol and through the OpenStack Object Storage (Swift) API, the Amazon S3 (Simple Storage Service) API, or the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Object Storage API.

After enabling and configuring the object API service, enable the feature on individual filesystems by going to the Shares BUI menu and selecting Filesystems.. Double-click on a filesystem to view its details, and then select the Protocols tab. In the HTTP section, and for the Object store mode option, select Read/write to enable the feature for the filesystem.

Enabling the Object API Service

To enable an object API service, from the Configuration BUI menu, select Services, then HTTP, and select Swift, S3, or OCI. Then, accordingly, select the check box for Enable Swift, Enable S3, or Enable OCI, and complete the properties using the descriptions in HTTP Properties and Logs. Finish by clicking APPLY.

Configuring Object API Properties

After the object API service is enabled, you can configure it with the object API properties, as shown in HTTP Properties and Logs.
