Background Process¶

Background Process for Copying or Moving Objects in Glacier¶

In this application, objects stored in the GLACIER storage classes are handled via a background process during copy or move actions. The following steps outline how this process works:

Initiate Restore Process
- When an object stored in the GLACIER storage class needs to be copied or moved, the system first initiates a restore request.
- This restore process retrieves the object from the non-accessible tier and prepares it for the copy or move action.
Perform Copy or Move Action
- Once the restore process is complete and the object is accessible, the system automatically proceeds to either copy or move the object as specified by the user.
- This process ensures that no attempt is made to move or copy objects while they remain in a non-accessible storage class.
Check Job Status
- Users can check the status of these background tasks (copy, or move) by navigating to the Profile section in the Dashboard.
- To view job status: - Go to Profile in the top right corner. - In the side panel, click on Job-status. - This will display the current status of initiated objects, including their progress through the restore and copy/move process.
