Note: It is recommended to periodically revoke old and generate new access key pairs.

3.3.7 Revoking S3 User Access Key Pairs

You can revoke the speciﬁed access key pair of the speciﬁed user with the ostor-s3-admin revoke-access-key com-

mand. You need to specify the access key in the key pair you want to delete as well as the user email or S3 ID.

For example:

# ostor-s3-admin revoke-access-key -e user@email.com -k de86d1c19e616455YIPU

Revoke access key: user id=de86d1c19e616455, access key id=de86d1c19e616455YIPU

Note: It is recommended to periodically revoke old and generate new access key pairs.

3.4 Managing Object Storage Buckets

All objects in Amazon S3-like storage are stored in containers named buckets. Buckets are addressed by names

that are unique in the given object storage, so an S3 user of that object storage cannot create a bucket that

has the same name as a diﬀerent bucket in the same object storage. Buckets are used to:

• group and isolate objects from those in other buckets,

• provide ACL management mechanisms for objects in them,

• set per-bucket access policies, for example, versioning in the bucket.

You can manage buckets with the ostor-s3-admin tool as well as S3 API third-party S3 browsers like CyberDuck or

DragonDisk.

Note: As ostor-s3-admin commands are assumed to be issued by object storage administrators, they do

not include any authentication or authorization checks.
