Each Amazon S3 storage pool contains one or more buckets that are associated with specific Amazon S3 storage components. Each Amazon S3 storage pool includes all of the storage that’s allocated to all of the buckets in the pool.
To enable HCP to access the storage that’s represented by an Amazon S3 storage pool, when you create that component, you specify the following information:
•The storage pool name.
•Optionally, a description of the pool.
•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 name of the Amazon S3 storage component that represents the Amazon S3 Web Services endpoint that’s used to access the bucket
oThe account label used to identify the Amazon S3 Web Services user account that’s used to access the storage associated with the bucket
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 Amazon S3 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 Amazon S3 storage components. |
