Verify operation

Verify operation of the Object Storage service.

Note

Perform these steps on the controller node.

rdo

Warning

If one or more of these steps do not work, check the /var/log/audit/audit.log file for SELinux messages indicating denial of actions for the swift processes. If present, change the security context of the /srv/node directory to the lowest security level (s0) for the swift_data_t type, object_r role and the system_u user:

# chcon -R system_u:object_r:swift_data_t:s0 /srv/node

1. Due to a bug, you must add a version to the OS_AUTH_URL variable in the environment scripts. For example:

   export OS_AUTH_URL=http://controller:5000/v3

2. Source the demo credentials:

   $ . demo-openrc

3. Show the service status:

   $ swift stat
                           Account: AUTH_ed0b60bf607743088218b0a533d5943f
                        Containers: 0
                           Objects: 0
                             Bytes: 0
   Containers in policy "policy-0": 0
      Objects in policy "policy-0": 0
        Bytes in policy "policy-0": 0
       X-Account-Project-Domain-Id: default
                       X-Timestamp: 1444143887.71539
                        X-Trans-Id: tx1396aeaf17254e94beb34-0056143bde
                      Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8
                     Accept-Ranges: bytes

4. Create container1 container:

   $ openstack container create container1
   +---------------------------------------+------------+------------------------------------+
   | account                               | container  | x-trans-id                         |
   +---------------------------------------+------------+------------------------------------+
   | AUTH_ed0b60bf607743088218b0a533d5943f | container1 | tx8c4034dc306c44dd8cd68-0056f00a4a |
   +---------------------------------------+------------+------------------------------------+

5. Upload a test file to the container1 container:

   $ openstack object create container1 FILE
   +--------+------------+----------------------------------+
   | object | container  | etag                             |
   +--------+------------+----------------------------------+
   | FILE   | container1 | ee1eca47dc88f4879d8a229cc70a07c6 |
   +--------+------------+----------------------------------+

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

6. List files in the container1 container:

   $ openstack object list container1
   +------+
   | Name |
   +------+
   | FILE |
   +------+

7. Download a test file from the container1 container:

   $ swift download container1 FILE
     FILE [auth 0.410s, headers 0.746s, total 1.001s, 22.494 MB/s]

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

   Note

   Due to a bug with the OpenStack client, you must use the conventional swift client or other compatible client to download files.
