Reference

Archiving target can be set only once initially. * It cannot be modified after it is set.
If the target files for the Archiving policy are set to All, you cannot configure additional policies.
You can configure up to 100 archiving policies.
The archiving policy is executed once daily based on the addition point.
Even if you delete all Archiving policies, the Archiving targets remain.
The policy task performs archiving on all versioned files in Object Storage.

Caution

If you reuse the bucket name of the archiving target, the configured archiving policy will be applied, so be careful.

Archive Storage Set up encryption

You can configure it to encrypt the data stored in the bucket. After configuring bucket encryption, the encryption settings are applied to data uploaded thereafter. When encryption is used, the SSE‑S3 encryption key method and the AES256 encryption algorithm are applied.

Reference

Archive Storage’s bucket encryption can provide two options (SSE-S3/SSE-KMS).

SSE‑S3 is server‑side encryption (SSE‑S3) that uses Amazon S3 managed keys.
SSE-KMS is server-side encryption (SSE-KMS) that uses Key Management Service (KMS) keys.
In this service, server-side encryption using Amazon S3 managed keys (SSE‑S3) is offered as the default method, and server-side encryption using Key Management Service (KMS) keys (SSE‑KMS) will be provided later according to the service roadmap.

Information

If there is data saved before the bucket encryption was configured, the encryption setting will not be applied.

If you re‑upload the file, the encryption will be applied.
To set encryption for existing data, you need to re‑upload it.

To set up encryption, follow these steps.

All Services > Storage > Archive Storage Click the menu. 1. Go to the Service Home page of Archive Storage.
On the Service Home page, click the Archive Storage menu. 2. Go to the Archive Storage List page.
Archive Storage list On the page, click the resource (bucket) to use for encryption. 3. Go to the Archive Storage Details page.
On the Archive Storage Details page, verify that Encryption is Not used, then click the Edit button. The Edit Encryption popup window opens.
After checking the Use of encryption, click the Confirm button.
