UMobj

UMobj

This is a set of console utilities that are available on all UMIACS supported machines. They are provided to support our Ceph Object Stores so our users may interact with them on the command line. In addition each Ceph Object Store in UMIACS has fully functional web application that allows access to your storage from any web browser.

For UMIACS support machines these utilities are installed at /opt/UMobj/bin however they should already be available in your path.

Prerequisites

To use any of these utilities you either have to pass in on the command line your access and secret keys or you need to set some appropriate environmental variables. You can obtain your access and secret keys (which are different from your username and password) by visiting the appropriate Ceph Object Store. The default store is https://obj.umiacs.umd.edu/UMobjstore/.

lsobj

To list the object store you can use the lsobj command.
