The Swarm cluster setting policy.lifecycle supports two values:

  • disabled – By A default , value for the evaluation of all lifecycle policies is disabled in the cluster to provide legacy behavior.

  • enabled – Lifecycle policies may be enabled or disabled Either enable or disable lifecycle policies at the domain level for domains where such policies are applied.

The Use Management API for policy.lifecycle setting can be set via Management API.

Policy Header Values

Domain objects support a Policy-Lifecycle header that controls to control the behavior of lifecycle policies for buckets in the domain. The header supports either of the following values:

  • <unspecified> – The lack of a defined policy header means represents that lifecycle policies are only enabled for buckets in the domain when the policy.lifecycle setting is enabled. This means that setting the Applying lifecycle policy at the domain level is optional.

  • enabled – The lifecycle policies are enabled for buckets in a domain when the policy.lifecycle cluster setting is enabled.

  • disabled – The lifecycle policies are disabled for buckets in a domain regardless of policy.lifecycle setting.

Info

Lifecycle policy does is not apply applied to unnamed content within a domain. Only named objects within buckets will have contains lifecycle policy applied to them.

Bucket objects support a Policy-Lifecycle header with multiple values.

...

Important

  • Duplicate names are not allowed across lifecycle rules for a bucket.

  • Unsupported names or values result in return an 400 error on the bucket (or domain) write. The 400 response will indicate indicates the source of the problem.

Attribute

Value

Definition

RuleId

<unique rule id>

A required, user-defined id ID of the rule. The value must be is contained within quotes . Values within the quotes and must be URL-encoded.

Enabled

<true|false>

An optional indication to confirm whether verify if the rule is enabled or not. The absence of this attribute indicates the rule enabled.

NamePrefix

<prefix>

An optional prefix to be matched match against the relative name of the object in question.

  • The Always use quoted value that must be quoted. URL encoded

  • Never use slash as a first character for the prefix.

  • If the prefix is matched with the object name, then the rule is applied to the object.

  • The absence of this the prefix indicates the rule is applied to all objects in the bucket.

  • The quoted value must be URL encoded.

ExpirationDays

<nonnegative integer>

The current version of an object is expired after the defined number of days.

ExpirationDate

<ISO 8601 date>

The current version of an object is expired after the defined date (midnight UTC time).

ObsoleteExpirationDays

<nonnegative integer>

A non-current version of an object is expired after the defined number of days when the object becomes non-current.

Info

This rule only takes effect if versioning is enabled on the bucket.

ObsoleteExpirationDate

<ISO 8601 date>

A non-current version of the object is expired after the defined date (midnight UTC time).

Info

This rule only takes effect if versioning is enabled on the bucket.

...

  • For expiration days,
    Expiration time = Creation time of the current version + Number of days indicated + Rounded up to the next midnight UTC

  • For obsolete expiration days,
    Expiration time = Create time of the next newest object version + Number of days indicated + Rounded up to the next midnight UTC

  • ISO 8601 dates must unambiguously specify a calendar date. The (unspecified) expiration time is always midnight UTC of that date, so ; any timezone specification is not allowed.

  • Expiration of a current version of an object (i.e. non-delete marker in the versioning enabled bucket) means represents creating a delete marker, pushing the current version down the versioning stack.

  • In all other cases, the object or object version is permanently deleted.

The gateway supports SCSP reads & writes of domain and bucket headers with lifecycle policies specified. Gateway S3 interface is modified to support GET, PUT, DELETE, and related permissions (GetLifecycleConfiguration and PutLifecycleConfiguration) for bucket lifecycle policies as specified in the S3 documentation. Gateway validates policies against the S3 specification. On PUT or DELETE permission, the gateway translates the client-supplied bucket policy specifications into the appropriate Swarm bucket headers. Bucket lifecycle policy features provided via S3 that Swarm does not support (such as storage class transitions) are dropped during this translation. On the bucket lifecycle policy GET reply, Gateway performs reverse translation for any Policy-Lifecycle headers on the bucket object into an S3-compatible format.

...

Info

Since lifecycle policies are part of the overall context-level policy framework, GET and HEAD requests on contexts and name objects (with the verbose query argument) return Policy-Lifecycle-Evaluated and Policy-Lifecycle-Evaluated-Constrained headers. They These headers describe if the lifecycle policies are enforced at the various levels such as cluster, domain, and bucket.
