How to create a Container ?

Add a new Container

List and add new Container in the menu:

Data Container

Create a new Container

Mandatory settings:

Configuration
Description

Container Name

It is the name of the Container.

The name is fixed at creation and cannot be altered.

Comment

This allows adding a description or comment.

Advanced Settings -> Protocol Activation

The 3 protocols (NFS - SMB - S3) are automatically available.

Security is applied specifically to each section per protocol.

Advanced Setting

Automatic Push Data

When set, this feature will execute automatically the push (meaning the copy) of each file written in the Container cache layer to a defined pool.

Options:

To enable this option, choose a destination pool.

When content is added to the container, it will automatically replicate to the designated location.

Cache Cleaning

Define a secondary storage target to offload contents from the cache. Activation occurs only when the cache is full or reaches its defined capacity limit.

Quota

This quota limits the maximum amount of data that can be stored in the container.

Cache resources allocation

For the container you create, specifies (in percent) the size of the cache this container can use (0 is no limit).

Container's access Right

To set the rights and privileges for a container, click the action button on the right of its row.

Define container access permissions as read/write, read-only, or no access.

Choose user(s) and specify their access level:

  • Read/Write

  • Read Only

  • **No Access

Finally, you can also define default privileges for the guest account.

Container setting with S3 protocol

If your application or server is configured to store data in S3, Nodeum can directly receive this data into a

To achieve this, configure the necessary parameters to enable communication between the application and Nodeum.

Steps to Configure S3 Access for a New Container

  1. Create a Specific User: Begin by setting up a new user which will be granted necessary S3 access permissions.

  2. Create a Container: Set up a new container. Assign privileges to the user created in the previous step, ensuring they have the required access permissions.

  3. Remap S3 Policies: Update and configure the S3 policies for the container to align with your security and access protocols.

  4. Enable S3 Access: Allow S3 access for the user. Nodeum will automatically provide you with the Key ID and password required to access S3 data.

Carefully follow these steps to secure and manage your S3 access efficiently.

If you are looking to use it as S3 target please refer to the to follow the naming conventions.
