Economy storage pools

HCP S Series Nodes use storage pools to group buckets together. A storage pool can contain multiple buckets from different HCP S Series Nodes, but a bucket cannot belong to multiple storage pools.

If you add an HCP S Series Node to the HCP system, a storage pool needs to already exist or be created. To create a storage pool you must specify the following information:

The storage pool name.

Whether the storage pool is compliant.

Whether you want HCP to compress object data that’s stored on the storage that’s allocated to the buckets in the storage pool.

Whether you want HCP to encrypt object data that’s stored on the storage that’s allocated to the buckets in the storage pool. If encryption is disabled for the system, this option is not visible.

For each bucket you want to include in the storage pool:

oThe account to which the bucket is assigned

oThe name of the bucket

Note:  

At any given time, a bucket can be included in only one storage pool.

Each bucket you add to a new storage pool must be empty or have only HCP data in it.

A storage pool is compliant only if all of the buckets in the pool are associated with compliant storage components.
