Working with Buckets and Objects

Accounts can store objects (folders and files) in buckets. Once you create a storage bucket, you can upload objects into the bucket. You can create up to 1000 buckets per account.

Create a Bucket

1. On the Zettagrid Vault Console, click Create Bucket. If you are a new user, you may see a screen such as the one below.

2. In the “ Bucket Name” area, enter a unique DNS-compliant name for your new bucket. You should develop a naming strategy following these guidelines:

The bucket name is visible in the URL that points to the objects you will put in the bucket.

3. Select the region (geographic location) where you want the bucket to reside. The URL of the region you select is displayed with the region name.

Region will be locked down to Australia unless requested in other locations

4. At this point, you have several options before creating the bucket.

5. Click Create to accept the information and create the bucket. A message at the top of your screen indicates that the bucket was created successfully. The new bucket is displayed on the Buckets View

Edit bucket properties via three dots icon at the end of the row to:

• Delete or View/Edit Bucket

Bucket Properties

Bucket properties can be viewed via the three dots icon :

Several settings can be changed

Object Lock must be enabled at the time a bucket is created.

Bucket Versioning

Bucket Versioning Versioning is a way to maintain multiple variations of an object in the same bucket. When versioning is enabled, you can then retrieve and restore any version of an object in the bucket. This provides protection against inadvertent removal of an object (such as by overwriting or expiration).

There are three Versioning states a bucket can be in

• Unversioned

• Enabled

• Suspended

Once you version-enable a bucket, it can never return to an unversioned state. You can, however, suspend versioning on that bucket. The versioned objects that have been created will remain in the bucket. You will want to remove them specifically if they are no longer needed.

Enabling Bucket Versioning for Unversioned

1. Select a Bucket that is Unversioned from the Buckets List.

2. Click Properties.

3. Under Bucket Versioning, click on Enable Versioning.

4. Confirm that you want to Enable Versioning

Suspending Bucket Versioning for Versioned Buckets

1. Select a Bucket that is Versioned from the Buckets List.

2. Click Properties.

3. Under Bucket Versioning, click on Suspend Versioning

4. Confirm that you want to Suspend Versioning.

Bucket Logging

Bucket Logging creates a text log file of all access to the bucket. You can specify the target bucket in which to store log files as well as a prefix to include in the log file name.

Enabling Bucket Logging

1. Select a Bucket from the Buckets List that you want to enable Bucket Logging for.

2. Click Properties.

3. Slide the switch to enable Bucket Logging.

4. Enter a Logging Prefix to include in the log file name. Each log file will start with the characters you enter.

5. Select a Target Bucket in which to store log files.

6. Click Update to confirm your settings.

Object Locking

Object Locking can help prevent objects from being deleted or overwritten for a fixed amount of time or indefinitely. Object Locking must be enabled at Bucket Creation. Versioning must also be enabled on the bucket. Once enabled, Object Locking cannot be disabled.

Creating an Object Lock Bucket

1. Click Create Bucket from the Buckets list

2. Slide the switch next to Object Locking to enable Object Locking on this Bucket. (Note: Bucket Versioning will be enabled automatically)

Setting Object Locking Defaults

When Object Locking is enabled for a bucket, the Object Locking panel tab on the properties page for the bucket will have default settings that can be configured.

1. Select a Bucket from the Buckets List that you would like to configure Object Locking Defaults for. (Note: This Bucket must have had Object Lock enable at Bucket Creation.)

2. Click Properties

3. Slide the switch next to Enable Bucket-Level Object Retention. These settings will automatically apply to all new objects placed into the bucket after you apply the settings.

4. Configure a mode by selecting either Governance Mode or Compliance Mode.

6. Click Update.

7. Confirm

• Objects placed in Governance Mode remain immutable until after they have reached the retain until date, unless a user has specific IAM permissions to alter the settings.

• Objects placed in Compliance Mode remain immutable until after they have reached the retain until date. This cannot be reversed for any reason, by any user, regardless of user permissions.

View Object Lock information

1. Click on a Bucket

2. Click on an Object. The “Mode,” “Retain Until” date, and “Legal Hold” status are displayed.

If you want to modify the “Mode” and/or “Retain Until” date, click Edit (to the right of Object Locking). After making your change, click APPLY to save the Object Locking changes.

If object locking was not previously configured on the object:

1. You can click

Enable Object Locking and Configure the Mode

Legal Hold

1. You can toggle the Legal Hold on or off for the object. This will prevent anyone from Deleting the Object if enabled.

Storing Objects in Buckets

Follow the following steps to upload files via Vault:

1. Select the bucket you want to use

2. Click on Upload Files

3. Browse or drag and drop files

4. Click Start Upload to upload the objects.

Upload a file(s) by clicking the BROWSE FILES button. Then, navigate to find the file(s) you want to upload. You can use the Shift or Ctrl keys to select multiple files. (Continue with the next step.) If you choose the same file name from different folders, the file chosen last will be stored before the upload starts.

Avoid the use of the following special characters in a file name:

% (percent)

< (less than symbol)

> (greater than symbol)

\ (backslash)

# (pound sign)

? (question mark)

Certain file names may have non-ASCII characters that are 4 byte UTF8 characters (such as emojis). These characters are not support and will return a 400 error message to an application that tries to write a file with 4 byte UTF characters in the file name. We recommend renaming the affected files, if possible.

Remove files from upload list

To remove a file from the list before uploading, click X to the right of the file name. To remove all selected files before uploading, click Clear Files.

Click Start Upload to upload the objects.

A check appears to the right of each file name when it is successfully uploaded.

View File Versions

1. Toggle on “Show Versions” from the Objects list

2. Find the “versioned” objects in the Object list
