Hi,
I have about 16mil files (1 TB total) in DO space and I wanted to set expiration policy to delete all files older than 40 days. According to docs, DO Spaces should support LifecycleConfiguration
, so that I set it for bucket using s3cmd:
s3cmd expire s3://mybucket --expiry-days 40
The command was accepted and the rule was set:
s3cmd getlifecycle s3://mybucket
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<LifecycleConfiguration xmlns="http://s3.amazonaws.com/doc/2006-03-01/">
<Rule>
<ID>bqwrg54gdyz5sn8gwkq9c6yqlcdvmalfkelpg82u6vl1nhrs</ID>
<Prefix/>
<Status>Enabled</Status>
<Expiration>
<Days>40</Days>
</Expiration>
</Rule>
</LifecycleConfiguration>
However, 2 months passed and I checked the bucket again and I still can see files older than half year. So is this feature working? Is it limited to some specific datacenter or so?
Thanks,
Jindrich
