type Protocol

dict

param Protocol

[REQUIRED]

Specifies the data transfer protocol that DataSync uses to access your Amazon FSx file system.

  • NFS (dict) --

    Specifies the Network File System (NFS) protocol configuration that DataSync uses to access your FSx for OpenZFS file system or FSx for ONTAP file system's storage virtual machine (SVM).

    • MountOptions (dict) --

      Specifies how DataSync can access a location using the NFS protocol.

      • Version (string) --

        Specifies the NFS version that you want DataSync to use when mounting your NFS share. If the server refuses to use the version specified, the task fails.

        You can specify the following options:

        • AUTOMATIC (default): DataSync chooses NFS version 4.1.

        • NFS3 : Stateless protocol version that allows for asynchronous writes on the server.

        • NFSv4_0 : Stateful, firewall-friendly protocol version that supports delegations and pseudo file systems.

        • NFSv4_1 : Stateful protocol version that supports sessions, directory delegations, and parallel data processing. NFS version 4.1 also includes all features available in version 4.0.

        Note

        DataSync currently only supports NFS version 3 with Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP locations.

  • SMB (dict) --

    Specifies the Server Message Block (SMB) protocol configuration that DataSync uses to access your FSx for ONTAP file system's SVM.

    • Domain (string) --

      Specifies the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the Microsoft Active Directory that your storage virtual machine (SVM) belongs to.

    • MountOptions (dict) --

      Specifies the version of the Server Message Block (SMB) protocol that DataSync uses to access an SMB file server.

      • Version (string) --

        By default, DataSync automatically chooses an SMB protocol version based on negotiation with your SMB file server. You also can configure DataSync to use a specific SMB version, but we recommend doing this only if DataSync has trouble negotiating with the SMB file server automatically.

        These are the following options for configuring the SMB version:

        • AUTOMATIC (default): DataSync and the SMB file server negotiate a protocol version that they mutually support. (DataSync supports SMB versions 1.0 and later.) This is the recommended option. If you instead choose a specific version that your file server doesn't support, you may get an Operation Not Supported error.

        • SMB3 : Restricts the protocol negotiation to only SMB version 3.0.2.

        • SMB2 : Restricts the protocol negotiation to only SMB version 2.1.

        • SMB2_0 : Restricts the protocol negotiation to only SMB version 2.0.

        • SMB1 : Restricts the protocol negotiation to only SMB version 1.0.

        Note

        The SMB1 option isn't available when creating an Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP location .

    • Password (string) -- [REQUIRED]

      Specifies the password of a user who has permission to access your SVM.

    • User (string) -- [REQUIRED]

      Specifies a user name that can mount the location and access the files, folders, and metadata that you need in the SVM.

      If you provide a user in your Active Directory, note the following:

      • If you're using Directory Service for Microsoft Active Directory, the user must be a member of the Amazon Web Services Delegated FSx Administrators group.

      • If you're using a self-managed Active Directory, the user must be a member of either the Domain Admins group or a custom group that you specified for file system administration when you created your file system.

      Make sure that the user has the permissions it needs to copy the data you want:

      • SE_TCB_NAME : Required to set object ownership and file metadata. With this privilege, you also can copy NTFS discretionary access lists (DACLs).

      • SE_SECURITY_NAME : May be needed to copy NTFS system access control lists (SACLs). This operation specifically requires the Windows privilege, which is granted to members of the Domain Admins group. If you configure your task to copy SACLs, make sure that the user has the required privileges. For information about copying SACLs, see Ownership and permissions-related options .

type SecurityGroupArns

list

param SecurityGroupArns

[REQUIRED]

Specifies the Amazon EC2 security groups that provide access to your file system's preferred subnet.

The security groups must allow outbound traffic on the following ports (depending on the protocol you use):

  • Network File System (NFS) : TCP ports 111, 635, and 2049

  • Server Message Block (SMB) : TCP port 445

Your file system's security groups must also allow inbound traffic on the same ports.

  • (string) --

type StorageVirtualMachineArn

string

param StorageVirtualMachineArn

[REQUIRED]

Specifies the ARN of the storage virtual machine (SVM) in your file system where you want to copy data to or from.

type Subdirectory

string

param Subdirectory

Specifies a path to the file share in the SVM where you'll copy your data.

You can specify a junction path (also known as a mount point), qtree path (for NFS file shares), or share name (for SMB file shares). For example, your mount path might be /vol1 , /vol1/tree1 , or /share1 .

Note

Don't specify a junction path in the SVM's root volume. For more information, see Managing FSx for ONTAP storage virtual machines in the Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP User Guide .

type Tags

list

param Tags

Specifies labels that help you categorize, filter, and search for your Amazon Web Services resources. We recommend creating at least a name tag for your location.

  • (dict) --

    A key-value pair representing a single tag that's been applied to an Amazon Web Services resource.

    • Key (string) -- [REQUIRED]

      The key for an Amazon Web Services resource tag.

    • Value (string) --

      The value for an Amazon Web Services resource tag.

  • (dict) --

    • LocationArn (string) --

      The ARN of the FSx for OpenZFS location that was described.

    • LocationUri (string) --

      The uniform resource identifier (URI) of the FSx for OpenZFS location that was described.

      Example: fsxz://us-west-2.fs-1234567890abcdef02/fsx/folderA/folder

    • SecurityGroupArns (list) --

      The ARNs of the security groups that are configured for the FSx for OpenZFS file system.

      • (string) --

    • Protocol (dict) --

      The type of protocol that DataSync uses to access your file system.

      • NFS (dict) --

        Specifies the Network File System (NFS) protocol configuration that DataSync uses to access your FSx for OpenZFS file system or FSx for ONTAP file system's storage virtual machine (SVM).

        • MountOptions (dict) --

          Specifies how DataSync can access a location using the NFS protocol.

          • Version (string) --

            Specifies the NFS version that you want DataSync to use when mounting your NFS share. If the server refuses to use the version specified, the task fails.

            You can specify the following options:

            • AUTOMATIC (default): DataSync chooses NFS version 4.1.

            • NFS3 : Stateless protocol version that allows for asynchronous writes on the server.

            • NFSv4_0 : Stateful, firewall-friendly protocol version that supports delegations and pseudo file systems.

            • NFSv4_1 : Stateful protocol version that supports sessions, directory delegations, and parallel data processing. NFS version 4.1 also includes all features available in version 4.0.

            Note

            DataSync currently only supports NFS version 3 with Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP locations.

      • SMB (dict) --

        Specifies the Server Message Block (SMB) protocol configuration that DataSync uses to access your FSx for ONTAP file system's SVM.

        • Domain (string) --

          Specifies the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the Microsoft Active Directory that your storage virtual machine (SVM) belongs to.

        • MountOptions (dict) --

          Specifies the version of the Server Message Block (SMB) protocol that DataSync uses to access an SMB file server.

          • Version (string) --

            By default, DataSync automatically chooses an SMB protocol version based on negotiation with your SMB file server. You also can configure DataSync to use a specific SMB version, but we recommend doing this only if DataSync has trouble negotiating with the SMB file server automatically.

            These are the following options for configuring the SMB version:

            • AUTOMATIC (default): DataSync and the SMB file server negotiate a protocol version that they mutually support. (DataSync supports SMB versions 1.0 and later.) This is the recommended option. If you instead choose a specific version that your file server doesn't support, you may get an Operation Not Supported error.

            • SMB3 : Restricts the protocol negotiation to only SMB version 3.0.2.

            • SMB2 : Restricts the protocol negotiation to only SMB version 2.1.

            • SMB2_0 : Restricts the protocol negotiation to only SMB version 2.0.

            • SMB1 : Restricts the protocol negotiation to only SMB version 1.0.

            Note

            The SMB1 option isn't available when creating an Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP location .

        • Password (string) --

          Specifies the password of a user who has permission to access your SVM.

        • User (string) --

          Specifies a user name that can mount the location and access the files, folders, and metadata that you need in the SVM.

          If you provide a user in your Active Directory, note the following:

          • If you're using Directory Service for Microsoft Active Directory, the user must be a member of the Amazon Web Services Delegated FSx Administrators group.

          • If you're using a self-managed Active Directory, the user must be a member of either the Domain Admins group or a custom group that you specified for file system administration when you created your file system.

          Make sure that the user has the permissions it needs to copy the data you want:

          • SE_TCB_NAME : Required to set object ownership and file metadata. With this privilege, you also can copy NTFS discretionary access lists (DACLs).

          • SE_SECURITY_NAME : May be needed to copy NTFS system access control lists (SACLs). This operation specifically requires the Windows privilege, which is granted to members of the Domain Admins group. If you configure your task to copy SACLs, make sure that the user has the required privileges. For information about copying SACLs, see Ownership and permissions-related options .

    • CreationTime (datetime) --

      The time that the FSx for OpenZFS location was created.

type LocationArn

string

param LocationArn

[REQUIRED]

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the SMB location to update.

type Subdirectory

string

param Subdirectory

The subdirectory in the SMB file system that is used to read data from the SMB source location or write data to the SMB destination. The SMB path should be a path that's exported by the SMB server, or a subdirectory of that path. The path should be such that it can be mounted by other SMB clients in your network.

Note

Subdirectory must be specified with forward slashes. For example, /path/to/folder .

To transfer all the data in the folder that you specified, DataSync must have permissions to mount the SMB share and to access all the data in that share. To ensure this, do either of the following:

  • Ensure that the user/password specified belongs to the user who can mount the share and who has the appropriate permissions for all of the files and directories that you want DataSync to access.

  • Use credentials of a member of the Backup Operators group to mount the share.

Doing either of these options enables the agent to access the data. For the agent to access directories, you must also enable all execute access.

type User
