Configuring the cloud gateway

A cloud gateway enables you to register one or more cloud services to the cluster. You can then add the cloud service as a cloud tier for a file system. Whenever you add a tier to a file system, you need to add a cloud service for the cloud tier.

You can add more than one cloud tier to the same file system and the cloud tiers can be associated with different services

Note:

Before adding the cloud service, make sure that the pool is created on the setup because of the dependency on shared location which gets created during the first pool creation.

To add the cloud service

  • Add the cloud service.
    Storage> cloud addservice service_name service_provider=AWS

    You are prompted to provide Amazon S3 subscription credentials.

To display the cloud services

  • Display the added cloud services.
    Storage> cloud listservice service_name

To remove the cloud service

  • Remove the cloud service.
    Storage> cloud removeservice service_name
