Adding an OBS Asset

Once you have authorized OBS assets, you can add them to DSC for data asset management. This includes identifying sensitive data, applying data masking, and injecting and extracting data watermarks.

Prerequisites

  • DSC has been authorized to access OBS assets. For details, see Allowing or Disallowing Access to Cloud Assets.
  • To add a self-built OBS bucket or other buckets, ensure that you have enabled OBS and created assets on it. For details about how to enable OBS, see Enabling and Using OBS Buckets.
  • To add another bucket, you need to set bucket permission to Public Read or Public Read/Write, or set the bucket to a private bucket on which the current account has permissions.

Constraints

DSC does not support the parallel file system of OBS.

Adding Self-built OBS Buckets

Self-built buckets are created by the current user, including public buckets and private buckets.
