Archiving How it works

The Archiving behavior according to the target is as follows.

Archiving targetdetailed description
Previous version/current version fileDepends on whether versioning is used in Archive Storage
  • Object Storage versioning: Enabled / Archive Storage versioning: Enabled
    • All versions of Object Storage are also managed by version in Archive Storage
  • Object Storage versioning: Enabled / Archive Storage versioning: Disabled
    • Archiving is performed for all versions of Object Storage, but Archive Storage only manages the Current version (file overwrite applied)
    • Since Archive Storage only manages the Current version, previous version files of Object Storage cannot be viewed in Archive Storage
  • Object Storage versioning: Disabled / Archive Storage versioning: Enabled
    • Object Storage only manages the Current version (overwrite applied) and Archive Storage manages by version
  • Object Storage versioning: Disabled / Archive Storage versioning: Disabled
    • Both Object Storage and Archive Storage only manage the Current version (overwrite applied)
Delete Marker version containing fileDelete Marker version cannot be archived
  • When the latest version is a Delete Marker
    • Object Storage Details page’s Folder List tab cannot view the file
    • Archive Storage Details page’s Folder List tab can be viewed
  • When an intermediate version is a Delete Marker
    • Cannot view that version in the file version list of Object Storage and Archive Storage
    • After archiving, only the Delete Marker version is retained in Object Storage
Empty folderFolder creation not possible in Archive Storage
Folder with filesDepending on whether the folder is an Object, the folder deletion in Object Storage after archiving differs
  • If the folder is an Object: the folder is not deleted and is retained
    • When the folder is created first and then files are uploaded
    • When the folder containing files is uploaded directly from Windows
  • If the folder is not an Object: folder deletion
    • When the folder containing files is uploaded directly from Linux
    • When the folder itself is restored from Archive Storage to Object Storage
When there is no target filePerform the Archiving schedule as is
  • Archiving size: 0 B
When the target Object Storage bucket is terminated
  • Keep display of Archiving target
  • When clicking the Archiving target (Object Storage) link, fail to retrieve the bucket
