It is important to note that Arbutus' Object Storage solution does not use Amazon's [https://documentation.help/s3-dg-20060301/VirtualHosting.html S3 Virtual Hosting] (i.e. DNS-based bucket) approach which these clients assume by default. They need to be configured not to use that approach, as described in the pages linked above.

The <code>awscli</code> client also works with the Object Store service with better support for large (>5GB) files and the helpful <code>sync</code> command. However, not all features have not been tested.
=== Installing awscli === <!--T:45-->
<!--T:46-->
<pre>
pip install awscli awscli-plugin-endpoint

For information on obtaining Arbutus Object Storage, please see this page. For information on how to use an object storage client to manage your Arbutus object store, choose a client and follow instructions from these pages:

  1. Accessing object storage with s3cmd
  2. Accessing object storage with WinSCP
  3. Accessing object storage with awscli

It is important to note that Arbutus' Object Storage solution does not use Amazon's S3 Virtual Hosting (i.e. DNS-based bucket) approach which these clients assume by default. They need to be configured not to use that approach, as described in the pages linked above.
