Options

--server-hostname (string)

Specifies the domain name or IP address of the object storage server. A DataSync agent uses this hostname to mount the object storage server in a network.

--server-port (integer)

Specifies the port that your object storage server accepts inbound network traffic on (for example, port 443).

--server-protocol (string)

Specifies the protocol that your object storage server uses to communicate.

Possible values:

• HTTPS

• HTTP

--subdirectory (string)

Specifies the object prefix for your object storage server. If this is a source location, DataSync only copies objects with this prefix. If this is a destination location, DataSync writes all objects with this prefix.

--bucket-name (string)

Specifies the name of the object storage bucket involved in the transfer.

--access-key (string)

Specifies the access key (for example, a user name) if credentials are required to authenticate with the object storage server.

--secret-key (string)

Specifies the secret key (for example, a password) if credentials are required to authenticate with the object storage server.

--agent-arns (list)

Specifies the Amazon Resource Names (ARNs) of the DataSync agents that can securely connect with your location.

(string)

Syntax:

"string" "string" ...

--tags (list)

Specifies the key-value pair that represents a tag that you want to add to the resource. Tags can help you manage, filter, and search for your resources. We recommend creating a name tag for your location.

(structure)

Represents a single entry in a list of Amazon Web Services resource tags. TagListEntry returns an array that contains a list of tasks when the ListTagsForResource operation is called.

Key -> (string)

The key for an Amazon Web Services resource tag.

Value -> (string)

The value for an Amazon Web Services resource tag.

Shorthand Syntax:

Key=string,Value=string ...

JSON Syntax:

[
  {
    "Key": "string",
    "Value": "string"
  }
  ...
]

--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml (string) Reads arguments from the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton. If other arguments are provided on the command line, those values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally. This may not be specified along with --cli-input-yaml.

--generate-cli-skeleton (string) Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value input, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for --cli-input-json. Similarly, if provided yaml-input it will print a sample input YAML that can be used with --cli-input-yaml. If provided with the value output, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command. The generated JSON skeleton is not stable between versions of the AWS CLI and there are no backwards compatibility guarantees in the JSON skeleton generated.

See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.

Output

LocationArn -> (string)

Specifies the ARN of the object storage system location that you create.
