DataSync.Client¶A low-level client representing AWS DataSync
DataSync is a managed data transfer service that makes it simpler for you to automate moving data between on-premises storage and Amazon Web Services storage services. You also can use DataSync to transfer data between other cloud providers and Amazon Web Services storage services.
This API interface reference includes documentation for using DataSync programmatically. For complete information, see the DataSync User Guide .

create_foo, and you'd normally invoke the
operation as client.create_foo(**kwargs), if the
create_foo operation can be paginated, you can use the
call client.get_paginator("create_foo").True if the operation can be paginated,
False otherwise.cancel_task_execution(**kwargs)¶Stops an DataSync task execution that's in progress. The transfer of some files are abruptly interrupted. File contents that're transferred to the destination might be incomplete or inconsistent with the source files.
However, if you start a new task execution using the same task and allow it to finish, file content on the destination will be complete and consistent. This applies to other unexpected failures that interrupt a task execution. In all of these cases, DataSync successfully completes the transfer when you start the next task execution.

DataSync.Client.exceptions.InvalidRequestExceptionDataSync.Client.exceptions.InternalExceptionclose()¶Closes underlying endpoint connections.
create_agent(**kwargs)¶Activates an DataSync agent that you have deployed in your storage environment. The activation process associates your agent with your account. In the activation process, you specify information such as the Amazon Web Services Region that you want to activate the agent in. You activate the agent in the Amazon Web Services Region where your target locations (in Amazon S3 or Amazon EFS) reside. Your tasks are created in this Amazon Web Services Region.
You can activate the agent in a VPC (virtual private cloud) or provide the agent access to a VPC endpoint so you can run tasks without going over the public internet.
You can use an agent for more than one location. If a task uses multiple agents, all of them need to have status AVAILABLE for the task to run. If you use multiple agents for a source location, the status of all the agents must be AVAILABLE for the task to run.
Agents are automatically updated by Amazon Web Services on a regular basis, using a mechanism that ensures minimal interruption to your tasks.

[REQUIRED]
Your agent activation key. You can get the activation key either by sending an HTTP GET request with redirects that enable you to get the agent IP address (port 80). Alternatively, you can get it from the DataSync console.
The redirect URL returned in the response provides you the activation key for your agent in the query string parameter activationKey . It might also include other activation-related parameters; however, these are merely defaults. The arguments you pass to this API call determine the actual configuration of your agent.
For more information, see Activating an Agent in the DataSync User Guide.
The key-value pair that represents the tag that you want to associate with the agent. The value can be an empty string. This value helps you manage, filter, and search for your agents.
Note
Valid characters for key and value are letters, spaces, and numbers representable in UTF-8 format, and the following special characters: + - = . _ : / @.
A key-value pair representing a single tag that's been applied to an Amazon Web Services resource.
The key for an Amazon Web Services resource tag.
The value for an Amazon Web Services resource tag.
The ID of the VPC (virtual private cloud) endpoint that the agent has access to. This is the client-side VPC endpoint, also called a PrivateLink. If you don't have a PrivateLink VPC endpoint, see Creating a VPC Endpoint Service Configuration in the Amazon VPC User Guide.
VPC endpoint ID looks like this: vpce-01234d5aff67890e1 .
The Amazon Resource Names (ARNs) of the subnets in which DataSync will create elastic network interfaces for each data transfer task. The agent that runs a task must be private. When you start a task that is associated with an agent created in a VPC, or one that has access to an IP address in a VPC, then the task is also private. In this case, DataSync creates four network interfaces for each task in your subnet. For a data transfer to work, the agent must be able to route to all these four network interfaces.
The ARNs of the security groups used to protect your data transfer task subnets. See SecurityGroupArns.

Specifies the data transfer protocol that DataSync uses to access your Amazon FSx file system.
Specifies the Network File System (NFS) protocol configuration that DataSync uses to access your FSx for OpenZFS file system or FSx for ONTAP file system's storage virtual machine (SVM).
Specifies how DataSync can access a location using the NFS protocol.
Specifies the NFS version that you want DataSync to use when mounting your NFS share. If the server refuses to use the version specified, the task fails.
You can specify the following options:
AUTOMATIC (default): DataSync chooses NFS version 4.1.NFS3 : Stateless protocol version that allows for asynchronous writes on the server.NFSv4_0 : Stateful, firewall-friendly protocol version that supports delegations and pseudo file systems.NFSv4_1 : Stateful protocol version that supports sessions, directory delegations, and parallel data processing. NFS version 4.1 also includes all features available in version 4.0.Note
DataSync currently only supports NFS version 3 with Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP locations.
Specifies the Server Message Block (SMB) protocol configuration that DataSync uses to access your FSx for ONTAP file system's SVM.
Specifies the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the Microsoft Active Directory that your storage virtual machine (SVM) belongs to.
Specifies the version of the Server Message Block (SMB) protocol that DataSync uses to access an SMB file server.
By default, DataSync automatically chooses an SMB protocol version based on negotiation with your SMB file server. You also can configure DataSync to use a specific SMB version, but we recommend doing this only if DataSync has trouble negotiating with the SMB file server automatically.
These are the following options for configuring the SMB version:
AUTOMATIC (default): DataSync and the SMB file server negotiate a protocol version that they mutually support. (DataSync supports SMB versions 1.0 and later.) This is the recommended option. If you instead choose a specific version that your file server doesn't support, you may get an Operation Not Supported error.SMB3 : Restricts the protocol negotiation to only SMB version 3.0.2.SMB2 : Restricts the protocol negotiation to only SMB version 2.1.SMB2_0 : Restricts the protocol negotiation to only SMB version 2.0.SMB1 : Restricts the protocol negotiation to only SMB version 1.0.Note
The SMB1 option isn't available when creating an Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP location.
Specifies the password of a user who has permission to access your SVM.
Specifies a user name that can mount the location and access the files, folders, and metadata that you need in the SVM.
If you provide a user in your Active Directory, note the following:
Make sure that the user has the permissions it needs to copy the data you want:
SE_TCB_NAME : Required to set object ownership and file metadata. With this privilege, you also can copy NTFS discretionary access lists (DACLs).SE_SECURITY_NAME : May be needed to copy NTFS system access control lists (SACLs). This operation specifically requires the Windows privilege, which is granted to members of the Domain Admins group. If you configure your task to copy SACLs, make sure that the user has the required privileges. For information about copying SACLs, see Ownership and permissions-related options.[REQUIRED]
Specifies the Amazon EC2 security groups that provide access to your file system's preferred subnet.
The security groups must allow outbound traffic on the following ports (depending on the protocol you use):
Your file system's security groups must also allow inbound traffic on the same ports.
[REQUIRED]
Specifies the ARN of the storage virtual machine (SVM) in your file system where you want to copy data to or from.
Specifies a path to the file share in the SVM where you'll copy your data.

The subdirectory in the NFS file system that is used to read data from the NFS source location or write data to the NFS destination. The NFS path should be a path that's exported by the NFS server, or a subdirectory of that path. The path should be such that it can be mounted by other NFS clients in your network.
To see all the paths exported by your NFS server, run " showmount -e nfs-server-name " from an NFS client that has access to your server. You can specify any directory that appears in the results, and any subdirectory of that directory. Ensure that the NFS export is accessible without Kerberos authentication.
To transfer all the data in the folder you specified, DataSync needs to have permissions to read all the data. To ensure this, either configure the NFS export with no_root_squash, or ensure that the permissions for all of the files that you want DataSync allow read access for all users. Doing either enables the agent to read the files. For the agent to access directories, you must additionally enable all execute access.
If you are copying data to or from your Snowcone device, see NFS Server on Snowcone for more information.
For information about NFS export configuration, see 18.7. The /etc/exports Configuration File in the Red Hat Enterprise Linux documentation.
[REQUIRED]

[REQUIRED]
Specifies the name of the share exported by your SMB file server where DataSync will read or write data. You can include a subdirectory in the share path (for example, /path/to/subdirectory ). Make sure that other SMB clients in your network can also mount this path.
To copy all data in the specified subdirectory, DataSync must be able to mount the SMB share and access all of its data. For more information, see required permissions for SMB locations.
[REQUIRED]
Specifies the Domain Name Service (DNS) name or IP address of the SMB file server that your DataSync agent will mount.
Note
You can't specify an IP version 6 (IPv6) address.
[REQUIRED]
Specifies the user name that can mount your SMB file server and has permission to access the files and folders involved in your transfer.
For information about choosing a user with the right level of access for your transfer, see required permissions for SMB locations.

[REQUIRED]
Specifies the DataSync agent (or agents) which you want to connect to your SMB file server. You specify an agent by using its Amazon Resource Name (ARN).
Specifies the version of the SMB protocol that DataSync uses to access your SMB file server.
By default, DataSync automatically chooses an SMB protocol version based on negotiation with your SMB file server. You also can configure DataSync to use a specific SMB version, but we recommend doing this only if DataSync has trouble negotiating with the SMB file server automatically.
These are the following options for configuring the SMB version:
AUTOMATIC (default): DataSync and the SMB file server negotiate a protocol version that they mutually support. (DataSync supports SMB versions 1.0 and later.) This is the recommended option. If you instead choose a specific version that your file server doesn't support, you may get an Operation Not Supported error.SMB3 : Restricts the protocol negotiation to only SMB version 3.0.2.SMB2 : Restricts the protocol negotiation to only SMB version 2.1.SMB2_0 : Restricts the protocol negotiation to only SMB version 2.0.SMB1 : Restricts the protocol negotiation to only SMB version 1.0.Note
The SMB1 option isn't available when creating an Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP location.

[REQUIRED]
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the source location for the task.
[REQUIRED]
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of an Amazon Web Services storage resource's location.
Specifies the configuration options for a task. Some options include preserving file or object metadata and verifying data integrity.
You can also override these options before starting an individual run of a task (also known as a task execution ). For more information, see StartTaskExecution.
Specifies how and when DataSync checks the integrity of your data during a transfer.
Default value: POINT_IN_TIME_CONSISTENT
ONLY_FILES_TRANSFERRED(recommended): DataSync calculates the checksum of transferred files and metadata at the source location. At the end of the transfer, DataSync then compares this checksum to the checksum calculated on those files at the destination.
We recommend this option when transferring to S3 Glacier Flexible Retrieval or S3 Glacier Deep Archive storage classes. For more information, see Storage class considerations with Amazon S3 locations.
POINT_IN_TIME_CONSISTENT: At the end of the transfer, DataSync scans the entire source and destination to verify that both locations are fully synchronized.
You can't use this option when transferring to S3 Glacier Flexible Retrieval or S3 Glacier Deep Archive storage classes. For more information, see Storage class considerations with Amazon S3 locations.
NONE: DataSync doesn't run additional verification at the end of the transfer. All data transmissions are still integrity-checked with checksum verification during the transfer.
Specifies whether data at the destination location should be overwritten or preserved. If set to NEVER , a destination file for example will not be replaced by a source file (even if the destination file differs from the source file). If you modify files in the destination and you sync the files, you can use this value to protect against overwriting those changes.
Some storage classes have specific behaviors that can affect your Amazon S3 storage cost. For detailed information, see Considerations when working with Amazon S3 storage classes in DataSync.
Specifies whether to preserve metadata indicating the last time a file was read or written to. If you set Atime to BEST_EFFORT , DataSync attempts to preserve the original Atime attribute on all source files (that is, the version before the PREPARING phase of the task execution).
Note
The behavior of Atime isn't fully standard across platforms, so DataSync can only do this on a best-effort basis.
Default value: BEST_EFFORT
BEST_EFFORT: Attempt to preserve the per-fileAtimevalue (recommended).
NONE: IgnoreAtime.
Note
If Atime is set to BEST_EFFORT , Mtime must be set to PRESERVE .
If Atime is set to NONE , Mtime must also be NONE .
Specifies whether to preserve metadata indicating the last time that a file was written to before the PREPARING phase of your task execution. This option is required when you need to run the a task more than once.
Default Value: PRESERVE
PRESERVE: Preserve originalMtime(recommended)
NONE: IgnoreMtime.
Note
If Mtime is set to PRESERVE , Atime must be set to BEST_EFFORT .
If Mtime is set to NONE , Atime must also be set to NONE .
Specifies the POSIX user ID (UID) of the file's owner.
For more information, see Metadata copied by DataSync.
Default value: INT_VALUE . This preserves the integer value of the ID.
INT_VALUE: Preserve the integer value of UID and group ID (GID) (recommended).
NONE: Ignore UID and GID.
Specifies the POSIX group ID (GID) of the file's owners.
For more information, see Metadata copied by DataSync.
Default value: INT_VALUE . This preserves the integer value of the ID.
INT_VALUE: Preserve the integer value of user ID (UID) and GID (recommended).
NONE: Ignore UID and GID.
Specifies whether files in the destination location that don't exist in the source should be preserved. This option can affect your Amazon S3 storage cost. If your task deletes objects, you might incur minimum storage duration charges for certain storage classes. For detailed information, see Considerations when working with Amazon S3 storage classes in DataSync.
Default value: PRESERVE
PRESERVE: Ignore such destination files (recommended).
REMOVE: Delete destination files that aren’t present in the source.
Note
If you set this parameter to REMOVE , you can't set TransferMode to ALL . When you transfer all data, DataSync doesn't scan your destination location and doesn't know what to delete.
Specifies whether DataSync should preserve the metadata of block and character devices in the source location and recreate the files with that device name and metadata on the destination. DataSync copies only the name and metadata of such devices.
Note
DataSync can't copy the actual contents of these devices because they're nonterminal and don't return an end-of-file (EOF) marker.
Default value: NONE
NONE: Ignore special devices (recommended).
PRESERVE: Preserve character and block device metadata. This option currently isn't supported for Amazon EFS.
Specifies which users or groups can access a file for a specific purpose such as reading, writing, or execution of the file.
For more information, see Metadata copied by DataSync.
Default value: PRESERVE
PRESERVE: Preserve POSIX-style permissions (recommended).
NONE: Ignore permissions.
Note
DataSync can preserve extant permissions of a source location.
Limits the bandwidth used by a DataSync task. For example, if you want DataSync to use a maximum of 1 MB, set this value to 1048576 ( =1024*1024 ).
Specifies whether tasks should be queued before executing the tasks. The default is ENABLED , which means the tasks will be queued.
If you use the same agent to run multiple tasks, you can enable the tasks to run in series. For more information, see Queueing task executions.
Specifies the type of logs that DataSync publishes to a Amazon CloudWatch Logs log group. To specify the log group, see CloudWatchLogGroupArn.
If you set LogLevel to OFF , no logs are published. BASIC publishes logs on errors for individual files transferred. TRANSFER publishes logs for every file or object that is transferred and integrity checked.
Determines whether DataSync transfers only the data and metadata that differ between the source and the destination location or transfers all the content from the source (without comparing what's in the destination).
CHANGED: DataSync copies only data or metadata that is new or different content from the source location to the destination location.
ALL: DataSync copies all source location content to the destination (without comparing what's in the destination).
Specifies which components of the SMB security descriptor are copied from source to destination objects.
This value is only used for transfers between SMB and Amazon FSx for Windows File Server locations or between two FSx for Windows File Server locations. For more information, see how DataSync handles metadata.
Default value: OWNER_DACL
OWNER_DACL: For each copied object, DataSync copies the following metadata:
OWNER_DACL_SACL: For each copied object, DataSync copies the following metadata:
NONE: None of the SMB security descriptor components are copied. Destination objects are owned by the user that was provided for accessing the destination location. DACLs and SACLs are set based on the destination server’s configuration.
Specifies whether object tags are preserved when transferring between object storage systems. If you want your DataSync task to ignore object tags, specify the NONE value.
Default Value: PRESERVE
Specifies a list of filter rules that exclude specific data during your transfer. For more information and examples, see Filtering data transferred by DataSync.
Specifies which files, folders, and objects to include or exclude when transferring files from source to destination.
The type of filter rule to apply. DataSync only supports the SIMPLE_PATTERN rule type.
A single filter string that consists of the patterns to include or exclude. The patterns are delimited by "|" (that is, a pipe), for example: /folder1|/folder2
Specifies a schedule used to periodically transfer files from a source to a destination location. The schedule should be specified in UTC time. For more information, see Scheduling your task.
A cron expression that specifies when DataSync initiates a scheduled transfer from a source to a destination location.
Specifies the tags that you want to apply to the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) representing the task.
Tags are key-value pairs that help you manage, filter, and search for your DataSync resources.
A key-value pair representing a single tag that's been applied to an Amazon Web Services resource.
The key for an Amazon Web Services resource tag.
The value for an Amazon Web Services resource tag.
Specifies a list of filter rules that include specific data during your transfer. For more information and examples, see Filtering data transferred by DataSync.

AUTOMATIC (default): DataSync and the SMB file server negotiate a protocol version that they mutually support. (DataSync supports SMB versions 1.0 and later.) This is the recommended option. If you instead choose a specific version that your file server doesn't support, you may get an Operation Not Supported error.SMB3 : Restricts the protocol negotiation to only SMB version 3.0.2.SMB2 : Restricts the protocol negotiation to only SMB version 2.1.SMB2_0 : Restricts the protocol negotiation to only SMB version 2.0.SMB1 : Restricts the protocol negotiation to only SMB version 1.0.Note
The SMB1 option isn't available when creating an Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP location.
Specifies the password of a user who has permission to access your SVM.
Specifies a user name that can mount the location and access the files, folders, and metadata that you need in the SVM.
If you provide a user in your Active Directory, note the following:
Make sure that the user has the permissions it needs to copy the data you want:
SE_TCB_NAME : Required to set object ownership and file metadata. With this privilege, you also can copy NTFS discretionary access lists (DACLs).SE_SECURITY_NAME : May be needed to copy NTFS system access control lists (SACLs). This operation specifically requires the Windows privilege, which is granted to members of the Domain Admins group. If you configure your task to copy SACLs, make sure that the user has the required privileges. For information about copying SACLs, see Ownership and permissions-related options.The time that the FSx for OpenZFS location was created.

You can override these options for each task execution. For more information, see StartTaskExecution.
Specifies how and when DataSync checks the integrity of your data during a transfer.
Default value: POINT_IN_TIME_CONSISTENT
ONLY_FILES_TRANSFERRED(recommended): DataSync calculates the checksum of transferred files and metadata at the source location. At the end of the transfer, DataSync then compares this checksum to the checksum calculated on those files at the destination.
We recommend this option when transferring to S3 Glacier Flexible Retrieval or S3 Glacier Deep Archive storage classes. For more information, see Storage class considerations with Amazon S3 locations.
POINT_IN_TIME_CONSISTENT: At the end of the transfer, DataSync scans the entire source and destination to verify that both locations are fully synchronized.
You can't use this option when transferring to S3 Glacier Flexible Retrieval or S3 Glacier Deep Archive storage classes. For more information, see Storage class considerations with Amazon S3 locations.
NONE: DataSync doesn't run additional verification at the end of the transfer. All data transmissions are still integrity-checked with checksum verification during the transfer.
Specifies whether data at the destination location should be overwritten or preserved. If set to NEVER , a destination file for example will not be replaced by a source file (even if the destination file differs from the source file). If you modify files in the destination and you sync the files, you can use this value to protect against overwriting those changes.
Some storage classes have specific behaviors that can affect your Amazon S3 storage cost. For detailed information, see Considerations when working with Amazon S3 storage classes in DataSync.
Specifies whether to preserve metadata indicating the last time a file was read or written to. If you set Atime to BEST_EFFORT , DataSync attempts to preserve the original Atime attribute on all source files (that is, the version before the PREPARING phase of the task execution).
Note
The behavior of Atime isn't fully standard across platforms, so DataSync can only do this on a best-effort basis.
Default value: BEST_EFFORT
BEST_EFFORT: Attempt to preserve the per-fileAtimevalue (recommended).
NONE: IgnoreAtime.
Note
If Atime is set to BEST_EFFORT , Mtime must be set to PRESERVE .
If Atime is set to NONE , Mtime must also be NONE .
Specifies whether to preserve metadata indicating the last time that a file was written to before the PREPARING phase of your task execution. This option is required when you need to run the a task more than once.
Default Value: PRESERVE
PRESERVE: Preserve originalMtime(recommended)
NONE: IgnoreMtime.
Note
If Mtime is set to PRESERVE , Atime must be set to BEST_EFFORT .
If Mtime is set to NONE , Atime must also be set to NONE .
Specifies the POSIX user ID (UID) of the file's owner.
For more information, see Metadata copied by DataSync.
Default value: INT_VALUE . This preserves the integer value of the ID.
INT_VALUE: Preserve the integer value of UID and group ID (GID) (recommended).
NONE: Ignore UID and GID.
Specifies the POSIX group ID (GID) of the file's owners.
For more information, see Metadata copied by DataSync.
Default value: INT_VALUE . This preserves the integer value of the ID.
INT_VALUE: Preserve the integer value of user ID (UID) and GID (recommended).
NONE: Ignore UID and GID.
Specifies whether files in the destination location that don't exist in the source should be preserved. This option can affect your Amazon S3 storage cost. If your task deletes objects, you might incur minimum storage duration charges for certain storage classes. For detailed information, see Considerations when working with Amazon S3 storage classes in DataSync.
Default value: PRESERVE
PRESERVE: Ignore such destination files (recommended).
REMOVE: Delete destination files that aren’t present in the source.
Note
If you set this parameter to REMOVE , you can't set TransferMode to ALL . When you transfer all data, DataSync doesn't scan your destination location and doesn't know what to delete.
Specifies whether DataSync should preserve the metadata of block and character devices in the source location and recreate the files with that device name and metadata on the destination. DataSync copies only the name and metadata of such devices.
Note
DataSync can't copy the actual contents of these devices because they're nonterminal and don't return an end-of-file (EOF) marker.
Default value: NONE
NONE: Ignore special devices (recommended).
PRESERVE: Preserve character and block device metadata. This option currently isn't supported for Amazon EFS.
Specifies which users or groups can access a file for a specific purpose such as reading, writing, or execution of the file.
For more information, see Metadata copied by DataSync.
Default value: PRESERVE
PRESERVE: Preserve POSIX-style permissions (recommended).
NONE: Ignore permissions.
Note
DataSync can preserve extant permissions of a source location.
Limits the bandwidth used by a DataSync task. For example, if you want DataSync to use a maximum of 1 MB, set this value to 1048576 ( =1024*1024 ).
Specifies whether tasks should be queued before executing the tasks. The default is ENABLED , which means the tasks will be queued.
If you use the same agent to run multiple tasks, you can enable the tasks to run in series. For more information, see Queueing task executions.
Specifies the type of logs that DataSync publishes to a Amazon CloudWatch Logs log group. To specify the log group, see CloudWatchLogGroupArn.
If you set LogLevel to OFF , no logs are published. BASIC publishes logs on errors for individual files transferred. TRANSFER publishes logs for every file or object that is transferred and integrity checked.
Determines whether DataSync transfers only the data and metadata that differ between the source and the destination location or transfers all the content from the source (without comparing what's in the destination).
CHANGED: DataSync copies only data or metadata that is new or different content from the source location to the destination location.
ALL: DataSync copies all source location content to the destination (without comparing what's in the destination).
Specifies which components of the SMB security descriptor are copied from source to destination objects.
This value is only used for transfers between SMB and Amazon FSx for Windows File Server locations or between two FSx for Windows File Server locations. For more information, see how DataSync handles metadata.
Default value: OWNER_DACL
OWNER_DACL: For each copied object, DataSync copies the following metadata:
OWNER_DACL_SACL: For each copied object, DataSync copies the following metadata:
NONE: None of the SMB security descriptor components are copied. Destination objects are owned by the user that was provided for accessing the destination location. DACLs and SACLs are set based on the destination server’s configuration.
Specifies whether object tags are preserved when transferring between object storage systems. If you want your DataSync task to ignore object tags, specify the NONE value.
Default Value: PRESERVE
A list of filter rules that exclude specific data during your transfer. For more information and examples, see Filtering data transferred by DataSync.
Specifies which files, folders, and objects to include or exclude when transferring files from source to destination.
The type of filter rule to apply. DataSync only supports the SIMPLE_PATTERN rule type.
A single filter string that consists of the patterns to include or exclude. The patterns are delimited by "|" (that is, a pipe), for example: /folder1|/folder2
The schedule used to periodically transfer files from a source to a destination location.
A cron expression that specifies when DataSync initiates a scheduled transfer from a source to a destination location.
Errors that DataSync encountered during execution of the task. You can use this error code to help troubleshoot issues.
Detailed description of an error that was encountered during the task execution. You can use this information to help troubleshoot issues.

DataSync can't copy the actual contents of these devices because they're nonterminal and don't return an end-of-file (EOF) marker.
Default value: NONE
NONE: Ignore special devices (recommended).
PRESERVE: Preserve character and block device metadata. This option currently isn't supported for Amazon EFS.
Specifies which users or groups can access a file for a specific purpose such as reading, writing, or execution of the file.
For more information, see Metadata copied by DataSync.
Default value: PRESERVE
PRESERVE: Preserve POSIX-style permissions (recommended).
NONE: Ignore permissions.
Note
DataSync can preserve extant permissions of a source location.
Limits the bandwidth used by a DataSync task. For example, if you want DataSync to use a maximum of 1 MB, set this value to 1048576 ( =1024*1024 ).
Specifies whether tasks should be queued before executing the tasks. The default is ENABLED , which means the tasks will be queued.
If you use the same agent to run multiple tasks, you can enable the tasks to run in series. For more information, see Queueing task executions.
Specifies the type of logs that DataSync publishes to a Amazon CloudWatch Logs log group. To specify the log group, see CloudWatchLogGroupArn.
If you set LogLevel to OFF , no logs are published. BASIC publishes logs on errors for individual files transferred. TRANSFER publishes logs for every file or object that is transferred and integrity checked.
Determines whether DataSync transfers only the data and metadata that differ between the source and the destination location or transfers all the content from the source (without comparing what's in the destination).
CHANGED: DataSync copies only data or metadata that is new or different content from the source location to the destination location.
ALL: DataSync copies all source location content to the destination (without comparing what's in the destination).
Specifies which components of the SMB security descriptor are copied from source to destination objects.
This value is only used for transfers between SMB and Amazon FSx for Windows File Server locations or between two FSx for Windows File Server locations. For more information, see how DataSync handles metadata.
Default value: OWNER_DACL
OWNER_DACL: For each copied object, DataSync copies the following metadata:
OWNER_DACL_SACL: For each copied object, DataSync copies the following metadata:
NONE: None of the SMB security descriptor components are copied. Destination objects are owned by the user that was provided for accessing the destination location. DACLs and SACLs are set based on the destination server’s configuration.
Specifies whether object tags are preserved when transferring between object storage systems. If you want your DataSync task to ignore object tags, specify the NONE value.

The time that the task execution was started.
The expected number of files that is to be transferred over the network. This value is calculated during the PREPARING phase before the TRANSFERRING phase of the task execution. This value is the expected number of files to be transferred. It's calculated based on comparing the content of the source and destination locations and finding the delta that needs to be transferred.
The estimated physical number of bytes that is to be transferred over the network.
The actual number of files that was transferred over the network. This value is calculated and updated on an ongoing basis during the TRANSFERRING phase of the task execution. It's updated periodically when each file is read from the source and sent over the network.
If failures occur during a transfer, this value can be less than EstimatedFilesToTransfer . In some cases, this value can also be greater than EstimatedFilesToTransfer . This element is implementation-specific for some location types, so don't use it as an indicator for a correct file number or to monitor your task execution.

list_agents(**kwargs)¶Returns a list of DataSync agents that belong to an Amazon Web Services account in the Amazon Web Services Region specified in the request.
With pagination, you can reduce the number of agents returned in a response. If you get a truncated list of agents in a response, the response contains a marker that you can specify in your next request to fetch the next page of agents.
ListAgentsis eventually consistent. This means the result of running the operation might not reflect that you just created or deleted an agent. For example, if you create an agent with CreateAgent and then immediately runListAgents, that agent might not show up in the list right away. In situations like this, you can always confirm whether an agent has been created (or deleted) by using DescribeAgent.

[REQUIRED]
Specifies the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the task that you want to start.
Configures your DataSync task settings. These options include how DataSync handles files, objects, and their associated metadata. You also can specify how DataSync verifies data integrity, set bandwidth limits for your task, among other options.
Each task setting has a default value. Unless you need to, you don't have to configure any of these Options before starting your task.
Specifies how and when DataSync checks the integrity of your data during a transfer.
Default value: POINT_IN_TIME_CONSISTENT
ONLY_FILES_TRANSFERRED(recommended): DataSync calculates the checksum of transferred files and metadata at the source location. At the end of the transfer, DataSync then compares this checksum to the checksum calculated on those files at the destination.
We recommend this option when transferring to S3 Glacier Flexible Retrieval or S3 Glacier Deep Archive storage classes. For more information, see Storage class considerations with Amazon S3 locations.
POINT_IN_TIME_CONSISTENT: At the end of the transfer, DataSync scans the entire source and destination to verify that both locations are fully synchronized.
You can't use this option when transferring to S3 Glacier Flexible Retrieval or S3 Glacier Deep Archive storage classes. For more information, see Storage class considerations with Amazon S3 locations.
NONE: DataSync doesn't run additional verification at the end of the transfer. All data transmissions are still integrity-checked with checksum verification during the transfer.
Specifies whether data at the destination location should be overwritten or preserved. If set to NEVER , a destination file for example will not be replaced by a source file (even if the destination file differs from the source file). If you modify files in the destination and you sync the files, you can use this value to protect against overwriting those changes.
Some storage classes have specific behaviors that can affect your Amazon S3 storage cost. For detailed information, see Considerations when working with Amazon S3 storage classes in DataSync.
Specifies whether to preserve metadata indicating the last time a file was read or written to. If you set Atime to BEST_EFFORT , DataSync attempts to preserve the original Atime attribute on all source files (that is, the version before the PREPARING phase of the task execution).
Note
The behavior of Atime isn't fully standard across platforms, so DataSync can only do this on a best-effort basis.
Default value: BEST_EFFORT
BEST_EFFORT: Attempt to preserve the per-fileAtimevalue (recommended).
NONE: IgnoreAtime.
Note
If Atime is set to BEST_EFFORT , Mtime must be set to PRESERVE .
If Atime is set to NONE , Mtime must also be NONE .
Specifies whether to preserve metadata indicating the last time that a file was written to before the PREPARING phase of your task execution. This option is required when you need to run the a task more than once.
Default Value: PRESERVE
PRESERVE: Preserve originalMtime(recommended)
NONE: IgnoreMtime.
Note
If Mtime is set to PRESERVE , Atime must be set to BEST_EFFORT .
If Mtime is set to NONE , Atime must also be set to NONE .
Specifies the POSIX user ID (UID) of the file's owner.
For more information, see Metadata copied by DataSync.
Default value: INT_VALUE . This preserves the integer value of the ID.
INT_VALUE: Preserve the integer value of UID and group ID (GID) (recommended).
NONE: Ignore UID and GID.
Specifies the POSIX group ID (GID) of the file's owners.
For more information, see Metadata copied by DataSync.
Default value: INT_VALUE . This preserves the integer value of the ID.
INT_VALUE: Preserve the integer value of user ID (UID) and GID (recommended).
NONE: Ignore UID and GID.
Specifies whether files in the destination location that don't exist in the source should be preserved. This option can affect your Amazon S3 storage cost. If your task deletes objects, you might incur minimum storage duration charges for certain storage classes. For detailed information, see Considerations when working with Amazon S3 storage classes in DataSync.
Default value: PRESERVE
PRESERVE: Ignore such destination files (recommended).
REMOVE: Delete destination files that aren’t present in the source.
Note
If you set this parameter to REMOVE , you can't set TransferMode to ALL . When you transfer all data, DataSync doesn't scan your destination location and doesn't know what to delete.
Specifies whether DataSync should preserve the metadata of block and character devices in the source location and recreate the files with that device name and metadata on the destination. DataSync copies only the name and metadata of such devices.
Note
DataSync can't copy the actual contents of these devices because they're nonterminal and don't return an end-of-file (EOF) marker.
Default value: NONE
NONE: Ignore special devices (recommended).
PRESERVE: Preserve character and block device metadata. This option currently isn't supported for Amazon EFS.
Specifies which users or groups can access a file for a specific purpose such as reading, writing, or execution of the file.
For more information, see Metadata copied by DataSync.
Default value: PRESERVE
PRESERVE: Preserve POSIX-style permissions (recommended).
NONE: Ignore permissions.
Note
DataSync can preserve extant permissions of a source location.
Limits the bandwidth used by a DataSync task. For example, if you want DataSync to use a maximum of 1 MB, set this value to 1048576 ( =1024*1024 ).
Specifies whether tasks should be queued before executing the tasks. The default is ENABLED , which means the tasks will be queued.
If you use the same agent to run multiple tasks, you can enable the tasks to run in series. For more information, see Queueing task executions.
Specifies the type of logs that DataSync publishes to a Amazon CloudWatch Logs log group. To specify the log group, see CloudWatchLogGroupArn.
If you set LogLevel to OFF , no logs are published. BASIC publishes logs on errors for individual files transferred. TRANSFER publishes logs for every file or object that is transferred and integrity checked.
Determines whether DataSync transfers only the data and metadata that differ between the source and the destination location or transfers all the content from the source (without comparing what's in the destination).
CHANGED: DataSync copies only data or metadata that is new or different content from the source location to the destination location.
ALL: DataSync copies all source location content to the destination (without comparing what's in the destination).
Specifies which components of the SMB security descriptor are copied from source to destination objects.
This value is only used for transfers between SMB and Amazon FSx for Windows File Server locations or between two FSx for Windows File Server locations. For more information, see how DataSync handles metadata.
Default value: OWNER_DACL
OWNER_DACL: For each copied object, DataSync copies the following metadata:
OWNER_DACL_SACL: For each copied object, DataSync copies the following metadata:
NONE: None of the SMB security descriptor components are copied. Destination objects are owned by the user that was provided for accessing the destination location. DACLs and SACLs are set based on the destination server’s configuration.
Specifies whether object tags are preserved when transferring between object storage systems. If you want your DataSync task to ignore object tags, specify the NONE value.
Default Value: PRESERVE
Specifies a list of filter rules that determines which files to include when running a task. The pattern should contain a single filter string that consists of the patterns to include. The patterns are delimited by "|" (that is, a pipe), for example, "/folder1|/folder2" .
Specifies which files, folders, and objects to include or exclude when transferring files from source to destination.
The type of filter rule to apply. DataSync only supports the SIMPLE_PATTERN rule type.

To ensure this, either configure the NFS export with no_root_squash , or ensure that the files you want DataSync to access have permissions that allow read access for all users. Doing either option enables the agent to read the files. For the agent to access directories, you must additionally enable all execute access.
If you are copying data to or from your Snowcone device, see NFS Server on Snowcone for more information.
For information about NFS export configuration, see 18.7. The /etc/exports Configuration File in the Red Hat Enterprise Linux documentation.
A list of Amazon Resource Names (ARNs) of agents to use for a Network File System (NFS) location.
ARNs of the agents to use for an NFS location.
Specifies how DataSync can access a location using the NFS protocol.
Specifies the NFS version that you want DataSync to use when mounting your NFS share. If the server refuses to use the version specified, the task fails.
You can specify the following options:
AUTOMATIC (default): DataSync chooses NFS version 4.1.NFS3 : Stateless protocol version that allows for asynchronous writes on the server.NFSv4_0 : Stateful, firewall-friendly protocol version that supports delegations and pseudo file systems.NFSv4_1 : Stateful protocol version that supports sessions, directory delegations, and parallel data processing. NFS version 4.1 also includes all features available in version 4.0.Note
DataSync currently only supports NFS version 3 with Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP locations.

[REQUIRED]
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the SMB location to update.
The subdirectory in the SMB file system that is used to read data from the SMB source location or write data to the SMB destination. The SMB path should be a path that's exported by the SMB server, or a subdirectory of that path. The path should be such that it can be mounted by other SMB clients in your network.
Note
Subdirectory must be specified with forward slashes. For example, /path/to/folder .
To transfer all the data in the folder that you specified, DataSync must have permissions to mount the SMB share and to access all the data in that share. To ensure this, do either of the following:
Doing either of these options enables the agent to access the data. For the agent to access directories, you must also enable all execute access.
The Amazon Resource Names (ARNs) of agents to use for a Simple Message Block (SMB) location.
Specifies the version of the Server Message Block (SMB) protocol that DataSync uses to access an SMB file server.
By default, DataSync automatically chooses an SMB protocol version based on negotiation with your SMB file server. You also can configure DataSync to use a specific SMB version, but we recommend doing this only if DataSync has trouble negotiating with the SMB file server automatically.
These are the following options for configuring the SMB version:
AUTOMATIC (default): DataSync and the SMB file server negotiate a protocol version that they mutually support. (DataSync supports SMB versions 1.0 and later.) This is the recommended option. If you instead choose a specific version that your file server doesn't support, you may get an Operation Not Supported error.SMB3 : Restricts the protocol negotiation to only SMB version 3.0.2.SMB2 : Restricts the protocol negotiation to only SMB version 2.1.SMB2_0 : Restricts the protocol negotiation to only SMB version 2.0.SMB1 : Restricts the protocol negotiation to only SMB version 1.0.Note
The SMB1 option isn't available when creating an Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP location.

[REQUIRED]
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the resource name of the task to update.
Configures your DataSync task settings. These options include how DataSync handles files, objects, and their associated metadata. You also can specify how DataSync verifies data integrity, set bandwidth limits for your task, among other options.
Each task setting has a default value. Unless you need to, you don't have to configure any of these Options before starting your task.
Specifies how and when DataSync checks the integrity of your data during a transfer.
Default value: POINT_IN_TIME_CONSISTENT
ONLY_FILES_TRANSFERRED(recommended): DataSync calculates the checksum of transferred files and metadata at the source location. At the end of the transfer, DataSync then compares this checksum to the checksum calculated on those files at the destination.
We recommend this option when transferring to S3 Glacier Flexible Retrieval or S3 Glacier Deep Archive storage classes. For more information, see Storage class considerations with Amazon S3 locations.
POINT_IN_TIME_CONSISTENT: At the end of the transfer, DataSync scans the entire source and destination to verify that both locations are fully synchronized.
You can't use this option when transferring to S3 Glacier Flexible Retrieval or S3 Glacier Deep Archive storage classes. For more information, see Storage class considerations with Amazon S3 locations.
NONE: DataSync doesn't run additional verification at the end of the transfer. All data transmissions are still integrity-checked with checksum verification during the transfer.
Specifies whether data at the destination location should be overwritten or preserved. If set to NEVER , a destination file for example will not be replaced by a source file (even if the destination file differs from the source file). If you modify files in the destination and you sync the files, you can use this value to protect against overwriting those changes.
Some storage classes have specific behaviors that can affect your Amazon S3 storage cost. For detailed information, see Considerations when working with Amazon S3 storage classes in DataSync.
Specifies whether to preserve metadata indicating the last time a file was read or written to. If you set Atime to BEST_EFFORT , DataSync attempts to preserve the original Atime attribute on all source files (that is, the version before the PREPARING phase of the task execution).
Note
The behavior of Atime isn't fully standard across platforms, so DataSync can only do this on a best-effort basis.
Default value: BEST_EFFORT
BEST_EFFORT: Attempt to preserve the per-fileAtimevalue (recommended).
NONE: IgnoreAtime.
Note
If Atime is set to BEST_EFFORT , Mtime must be set to PRESERVE .
If Atime is set to NONE , Mtime must also be NONE .
Specifies whether to preserve metadata indicating the last time that a file was written to before the PREPARING phase of your task execution. This option is required when you need to run the a task more than once.
Default Value: PRESERVE
PRESERVE: Preserve originalMtime(recommended)
NONE: IgnoreMtime.
Note
If Mtime is set to PRESERVE , Atime must be set to BEST_EFFORT .
If Mtime is set to NONE , Atime must also be set to NONE .
Specifies the POSIX user ID (UID) of the file's owner.
For more information, see Metadata copied by DataSync.
Default value: INT_VALUE . This preserves the integer value of the ID.
INT_VALUE: Preserve the integer value of UID and group ID (GID) (recommended).
NONE: Ignore UID and GID.
Specifies the POSIX group ID (GID) of the file's owners.
For more information, see Metadata copied by DataSync.
Default value: INT_VALUE . This preserves the integer value of the ID.
INT_VALUE: Preserve the integer value of user ID (UID) and GID (recommended).
NONE: Ignore UID and GID.
Specifies whether files in the destination location that don't exist in the source should be preserved. This option can affect your Amazon S3 storage cost. If your task deletes objects, you might incur minimum storage duration charges for certain storage classes. For detailed information, see Considerations when working with Amazon S3 storage classes in DataSync.
Default value: PRESERVE
PRESERVE: Ignore such destination files (recommended).
REMOVE: Delete destination files that aren’t present in the source.
Note
If you set this parameter to REMOVE , you can't set TransferMode to ALL . When you transfer all data, DataSync doesn't scan your destination location and doesn't know what to delete.
Specifies whether DataSync should preserve the metadata of block and character devices in the source location and recreate the files with that device name and metadata on the destination. DataSync copies only the name and metadata of such devices.
Note
DataSync can't copy the actual contents of these devices because they're nonterminal and don't return an end-of-file (EOF) marker.
Default value: NONE
NONE: Ignore special devices (recommended).
PRESERVE: Preserve character and block device metadata. This option currently isn't supported for Amazon EFS.
Specifies which users or groups can access a file for a specific purpose such as reading, writing, or execution of the file.
For more information, see Metadata copied by DataSync.
Default value: PRESERVE
PRESERVE: Preserve POSIX-style permissions (recommended).
NONE: Ignore permissions.
Note
DataSync can preserve extant permissions of a source location.
Limits the bandwidth used by a DataSync task. For example, if you want DataSync to use a maximum of 1 MB, set this value to 1048576 ( =1024*1024 ).
Specifies whether tasks should be queued before executing the tasks. The default is ENABLED , which means the tasks will be queued.
If you use the same agent to run multiple tasks, you can enable the tasks to run in series. For more information, see Queueing task executions.
Specifies the type of logs that DataSync publishes to a Amazon CloudWatch Logs log group. To specify the log group, see CloudWatchLogGroupArn.
If you set LogLevel to OFF , no logs are published. BASIC publishes logs on errors for individual files transferred. TRANSFER publishes logs for every file or object that is transferred and integrity checked.
Determines whether DataSync transfers only the data and metadata that differ between the source and the destination location or transfers all the content from the source (without comparing what's in the destination).
CHANGED: DataSync copies only data or metadata that is new or different content from the source location to the destination location.
ALL: DataSync copies all source location content to the destination (without comparing what's in the destination).
Specifies which components of the SMB security descriptor are copied from source to destination objects.
This value is only used for transfers between SMB and Amazon FSx for Windows File Server locations or between two FSx for Windows File Server locations. For more information, see how DataSync handles metadata.
Default value: OWNER_DACL
OWNER_DACL: For each copied object, DataSync copies the following metadata:
OWNER_DACL_SACL: For each copied object, DataSync copies the following metadata:
NONE: None of the SMB security descriptor components are copied. Destination objects are owned by the user that was provided for accessing the destination location. DACLs and SACLs are set based on the destination server’s configuration.
Specifies whether object tags are preserved when transferring between object storage systems. If you want your DataSync task to ignore object tags, specify the NONE value.
Default Value: PRESERVE
Specifies a list of filter rules that exclude specific data during your transfer. For more information and examples, see Filtering data transferred by DataSync.
Specifies which files, folders, and objects to include or exclude when transferring files from source to destination.
The type of filter rule to apply. DataSync only supports the SIMPLE_PATTERN rule type.
A single filter string that consists of the patterns to include or exclude. The patterns are delimited by "|" (that is, a pipe), for example: /folder1|/folder2
Specifies a schedule used to periodically transfer files from a source to a destination location. You can configure your task to execute hourly, daily, weekly or on specific days of the week. You control when in the day or hour you want the task to execute. The time you specify is UTC time. For more information, see Scheduling your task.
A cron expression that specifies when DataSync initiates a scheduled transfer from a source to a destination location.
Specifies a list of filter rules that include specific data during your transfer. For more information and examples, see Filtering data transferred by DataSync.
