Dell ObjectScale 1.3 Administration Guide

Associate an account with an object store

This task describes how to associate an account with an object store in the ObjectScale Portal user interface.

1. From the ObjectScale Portal user interface, click Administration > ObjectScale.
   The list of Object Stores in the selected namespace that the user is authorized to view is displayed.
2. Select the appropriate namespace from the namespace drop-down on the upper right the ObjectScale Portal user interface.
3. Select the object store to add the tenant account to by clicking the object store name.
4. Select the Accounts tab.
   The Accounts list appears displaying the accounts currently associated with the object store.
5. Click Add.
   The Add Account to Object Store: <OBJECT_STORE_NAME> wizard is displayed.

   

6. Complete the Add Account to Object Store wizard and click Save.
   This process consists of:

   • Select the Account ID, which will be the tenant to this account to be added to the object store.
   • Type an Alias for this account.
   • Enable/disable Encryption, as desired. By default the encryption status will show the account's encryption status.
   • Default Bucket Quota limit for the account in the object store.
   • Set the Block writes at Quota limits for which writes must be blocked.
   • Set the Notification at Quota. This is the quota at which a notification should be sent out. This can be set by providing a quota value in the input box or as percentage of block writes at quota by selecting appropriate % from the drop-down.
   The selected tenant account is now associated with the object store and is a tenant of the object store.
