Verify operation
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This section describes how to verify operation of the Object Storage
service.

.. note::
   The ``swift`` client requires the ``-V 3`` parameter to use the
   Identity version 3 API.

.. note::
   Perform these steps on the controller node.

#. Source the ``demo`` credentials:

   .. code-block:: console

      $ source demo-openrc.sh

#. Show the service status:

   .. code-block:: console

      $ swift -V 3 stat
      Account: AUTH_c75cafb58f5049b8a976506737210756
           Containers: 0
              Objects: 0
                Bytes: 0
      X-Put-Timestamp: 1429736713.92936
          X-Timestamp: 1429736713.92936
           X-Trans-Id: txdea07add01ca4dbdb49a2-0055380d09
         Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8

#. Upload a test file:

   .. code-block:: console

      $ swift -V 3 upload demo-container1 FILE
      FILE

   Replace ``FILE`` with the name of a local file to upload to the
   ``demo-container1`` container.

#. List containers:

   .. code-block:: console

      $ swift -V 3 list
      demo-container1

#. Download a test file:

   .. code-block:: console

      $ swift -V 3 download demo-container1 FILE
      FILE [auth 0.295s, headers 0.339s, total 0.339s, 0.005 MB/s]

   Replace ``FILE`` with the name of the file uploaded to the
   ``demo-container1`` container.
