Configuring a Storage Quota for a Bucket (SDK for Node.js)

If you have any questions during development, post them on the Issues page of GitHub.

Function

A quota limits the maximum capacity allowed in a bucket. By default, there is no limit on the storage capacity of the entire OBS system or a single bucket, and any number of objects can be stored. You can set a storage quota to control the total size of objects that can be uploaded to the bucket. If the storage quota is reached, object upload will fail.

A quota limit does not apply to the objects uploaded before the quota is configured. If the specified quota is already smaller than the total size of existing objects in the bucket, the existing objects in the bucket will not be deleted, but no more object can be uploaded to the bucket later. In this case, you can upload new objects only by deleting some existing objects until the used space is less than the quota.

Restrictions

  • A bucket storage quota must be a non-negative integer expressed in bytes. The maximum value is 263 – 1.
  • OBS does not provide an API for deleting bucket storage quotas. You can set the bucket storage quota to 0 to cancel the limit.
  • To configure a storage quota for a bucket, you must be the bucket owner or have the required permission (obs:bucket:PutBucketQuota in IAM or PutBucketQuota in a bucket policy). For details, see Introduction to OBS Access Control, IAM Custom Policies, and Creating a Custom Bucket Policy.
  • To learn about the mappings between OBS regions and endpoints, see Regions and Endpoints.

setBucketQuota();
  • Use the StorageQuota parameter to specify the bucket quota.
  • A bucket quota must be a non-negative integer expressed in bytes. The maximum value is 263 - 1.
