Request Syntax

response = client.create_location_object_storage(
    ServerHostname='string',
    ServerPort=123,
    ServerProtocol='HTTPS'|'HTTP',
    Subdirectory='string',
    BucketName='string',
    AccessKey='string',
    SecretKey='string',
    AgentArns=[
        'string',
    ],
    Tags=[
        {

Parameters:
  • ServerHostname (string) –

    [REQUIRED]

    Specifies the domain name or IP address of the object storage server. A DataSync agent uses this hostname to mount the object storage server in a network.

  • ServerPort (integer) – Specifies the port that your object storage server accepts inbound network traffic on (for example, port 443).

  • ServerProtocol (string) – Specifies the protocol that your object storage server uses to communicate.

  • Subdirectory (string) – Specifies the object prefix for your object storage server. If this is a source location, DataSync only copies objects with this prefix. If this is a destination location, DataSync writes all objects with this prefix.

  • BucketName (string) –

    [REQUIRED]

    Specifies the name of the object storage bucket involved in the transfer.

  • AccessKey (string) – Specifies the access key (for example, a user name) if credentials are required to authenticate with the object storage server.

  • SecretKey (string) – Specifies the secret key (for example, a password) if credentials are required to authenticate with the object storage server.

  • AgentArns (list) –

    [REQUIRED]

    Specifies the Amazon Resource Names (ARNs) of the DataSync agents that can securely connect with your location.

    • (string) –

  • Tags (list) –

    Specifies the key-value pair that represents a tag that you want to add to the resource. Tags can help you manage, filter, and search for your resources. We recommend creating a name tag for your location.

    • (dict) –

      A key-value pair representing a single tag that’s been applied to an Amazon Web Services resource.

      • Key (string) – [REQUIRED]

        The key for an Amazon Web Services resource tag.

      • Value (string) –

        The value for an Amazon Web Services resource tag.

  • ServerCertificate (bytes) –

    Specifies a certificate to authenticate with an object storage system that uses a private or self-signed certificate authority (CA). You must specify a Base64-encoded .pem file (for example, file:///home/user/.ssh/storage_sys_certificate.pem). The certificate can be up to 32768 bytes (before Base64 encoding).

    To use this parameter, configure ServerProtocol to HTTPS.

Return type:

dict
