This document provides instructions for using curl cURLcommands to interact with SWARM Storage. Commands are organized into categories for creating and managing domains, buckets, objects, and configurations.

...

Replace placeholder terms like hostname and domain with your actual values when executing these commands.

Creating Domains and Buckets

...

curl -i --location-trusted --post301 --data-binary "" "http://hostnameipaddress/api?domain=yourDomainNamedomain&createdomain"

• Notes: Replace yourDomainName domain with the desired domain name.

...

curl -i --location-trusted --post301 -XPOST --data-binary "" "http://hostnameipaddress/api/testbucket?domain=yourDomainNamedomain"

• Notes: Replace yourDomainName domain with the appropriate domain and testbucket with the bucket name.

...

for i in {1..10}; do curl -i --location-trusted -XPOST --post301 --data-binary @yourFileName "http://hostnameipaddress/api/testbucket/NamedObject-$i.txt?domain=yourDomainNamedomain" -u "admin:admin"; done

• Notes: Replace yourFileName with the file you are uploading, and yourDomainName domain with the domain. Adjust the number of iterations ({1..10}) as needed.

...

curl -i --location-trusted --post301 -XPOST --data-binary @yourFileName "http://hostnameipaddress/api/testbucket/NamedObject.txt?domain=yourDomainNamedomain"

• Notes: Replace yourFileName with the file you are uploading, and yourDomainName with the domain.

Setting Cluster and Node Configurations

Update Cluster Setting

To update a cluster setting, such as erasure coding conversion percentage:

curl -X PUT --header "Content-Type: application/json" --header "Accept: text/plain" -d "{}" "http://hostname:port/api/storage/clusters/_self/settings/ec.conversionPercentage?value=40" --digest -u "admin:password"

• Notes: Replace ec.conversionPercentage?value=40 with the desired setting and its value, and hostname:port with your cluster's address.

Configure Node Setting

To configure node-level settings, such as health limits:

curl -i --location-trusted -X PUT --header "Content-Type: application/json" --header "Accept: text/plain" -d "{}" "http://hostname:port/api/storage/nodes/_self/settings/health.neonatalAgeLimit?value=30" -u "admin:password"

• Notes: Replace health.neonatalAgeLimit?value=30 with the desired cluster setting and its value, and hostname:port with the node's address.

• domain with the domain.

Managing Objects and Domains

...

curl -i --location-trusted -XPUT --post301 --data-binary '' -H "Policy-Versioning: enabled" "http://hostnameipaddress/api?domain=yourDomainNamedomain&replicate=immediate&admin" -u "admin:password"

• Notes: Replace yourDomainName domain with the target domain.

Check Object Integrity

...

curl -i --location-trusted "http://hostnameipaddress/api/testbucket/ObjectName.txt?domain=yourDomainNamedomain&checkintegrity"

• Notes: Replace ObjectName.txt with the object's name, and yourDomainName domain with the domain.

Capture Manifest of a Version

...

curl -i --location-trusted "http://hostnameipaddress/api/testbucket/ObjectName.txt?domain=yourDomainNamedomain&readmanifest&version=versionID"

...

curl -i --location-trusted "http://hostnameipaddress/api/testbucket?domain=yourDomainNamedomain&format=json&name=ObjectName.txt&versions&field=all"

• Notes: Replace ObjectName.txt with the object's name, and yourDomainName domain with the domain.

Setting Cluster and Node Configurations

Update Cluster Setting

To update a cluster setting, such as erasure coding conversion percentage:

curl -X PUT --header "Content-Type: application/json" --header "Accept: text/plain" -d "{}" "http://ipaddress:port/api/storage/clusters/_self/settings/ec.conversionPercentage?value=40" --digest -u "admin:password"

• Notes: Replace ec.conversionPercentage?value=40 with the desired setting and its value, and ipaddress:port with your cluster's address.

Configure Node Setting

To configure node-level settings, such as health limits:

curl -i --location-trusted -X PUT --header "Content-Type: application/json" --header "Accept: text/plain" -d "{}" "http://ipaddress:port/api/storage/nodes/_self/settings/health.neonatalAgeLimit?value=30" -u "admin:password"

• Notes: Replace health.neonatalAgeLimit?value=30 with the desired cluster setting and its value, and ipaddress:port with the node's address.

Additional Operations

Change Admin Password

...

curl -X PUT --header 'Content-Type: application/json' --header 'Accept: text/plain' 'http://hostnameipaddress:port/api/storage/clusters/_self/administrators/admin?password=newPassword' -u admin:oldPassword

...

curl -v --post301 -XPOST -H 'Content-type: text/html' -H 'lifepoint: [Date] reps=2, deletable=False, [] delete' --location-trusted 'http://hostnameipaddress/api/bucket/lifePointObject?domain=yourDomainNamedomain'

• Notes: Replace [Date] with the desired date format like [Wed, 20 Oct 2025 11:08:00 GMT] and yourDomainName domain with the domain.

Delete a Bucket

...

curl -i --location-trusted -XDELETE "http://hostnameipaddress/api/testbucket?domain=yourDomainNamedomain&recursive=now"

• Notes: Replace yourDomainName domain with the domain.

Create an EC Object

...

curl -i --location-trusted --post301 --data-binary @yourFileName "http://hostnameipaddress/api/testbucket/ec-named-1.txt?domain=yourDomainNamedomain&erasurecoded=yes&encoding=2:2"

• Notes: Replace yourFileName with the file to be used and yourDomainName domain with the domain.

General Tips

• Replace Placeholders: Always replace hostname ipaddress, domain, yourFileName, and other placeholders with actual values relevant to your environment.

• Permissions: Ensure that you have the necessary permissions for performing these operations.

• Security: Use secure methods for handling sensitive information like passwords.
