Editing an archive tier restore mode using the command line interface

If you create an archive tier after an upgrade to 7.1, the default mode of restores is Lambda. If the archive tier was been created prior to a 7.1 upgrade, the upgrade switches the restores from Batch operations to Lambda. You can change this option using the command line interface (CLI) or the user interface (UI).

To edit an archive tier restore mode using the command line interface

  1. From the CLI, enter the following commands:

    Commands for editing restore mode

    cloud_tier --update [--cloud_password]
    [--cloud_archive]
    [--archive_retention_in_warm <1 to 365 days>]
    [--archive_role_arn <archive role arn>]
    [--archive_restore_type <Batch|Lambda>]
     
    [root@qorestor-ol82-tst1 ~]# cloud_tier --update --archive_role_arn arn:aws:iam::177436582181:role/IAMLambdaOps_Restrictive --archive_restore_type Lambda --cloud_archive
    Validating Role-arn string format for group name DefaultCloudArchiveTier ...
    Role-arn string format is valid  We do basic format validation for the role ARN string. We cannot validate permissions at the time of addition/update – AWS does that during restore operation itself.
    Archive Tier updated successfully.

Deleting an archive tier

Before deleting a archive tier, review the details below:

  • The metadata for the files archived to the cloud will be removed locally. This makes those files unrecoverable.

  1. In the navigation menu, click Cloud Storage to expand the menu, then click Archive Tier.
  2. Click Delete.
  3. When prompted to confirm, click Delete.
  4. In the Passphrase field, enter the passphrase used for Archive Tier encryption. This provides validation that the person deleting the archive tier has the appropriate authorization.
  5. Review the containers linked to the archive tier and confirm that data in these containers can be deleted.
