Replicating Bucket Policies

Scenarios

OBS allows you to replicate the existing bucket policies to a new bucket. When replicating policies, OBS automatically replaces the bucket name in the source bucket policies with the destination bucket name, for the policies to apply to the destination bucket.

Limitations and Constraints

  • The policies replicated from a source bucket will not overwrite existing policies in the destination bucket.
  • The source policies with the same name as those in the destination bucket will not be replicated.
  • The version of both the source and destination buckets must be 3.0.

Procedure

  1. In the navigation pane on the left of OBS Console, choose Object Storage.
  2. In the bucket list, click a bucket name, and then the Overview page of the bucket is displayed.
  3. In the navigation pane on the left, choose Permissions > Bucket Policy.
  4. Click Replicate.
  5. Select a replication source, that is, the source bucket for which the bucket policies were configured.

    After you select a replication source, all bucket policies with different name from those in the destination bucket are displayed. You can remove any that are not required.
