HCP System Management Help
The format you use for the URL in an HS3 request depends on whether the target of the request and the authentication method being used. In an HS3 request that uses HCP authentication:
•If the target of the request is a tenant, you use a URL in this format:
http[s]://tenant-name.hcp-domain name/hs3
Here’s an example in which the tenant name is europe:
https://europe.hcp.example.com/hs3
•If the target of the request is a bucket, you use a URL in either of these formats:
http[s]://bucket-name.tenant-name.hcp-domain name/hs3
http[s]://tenant-name.hcp-domain name/hs3/bucket-name
In the first format above, the bucket name is part of the hostname. In the second format, the bucket name follows the hostname and hs3 interface identifier.
Here’s are examples in which the tenant name is europe and the bucket name is finance:
https://finance.europe.hcp.example.com/hs3
https://europe.hcp.example.com/hs3/finance
•If the target of the request is an object, you use a URL in either of these formats:
http[s]://bucket-name.tenant-name.hcp-domain name/hs3/object-name
http[s]://tenant-name.hcp-domain name/hs3/bucket-name/object-name
In the first format above, the bucket name is part of the hostname. In the second format, the bucket name follows the hostname and hs3 interface identifier.
Here’s are examples in which the tenant name is europe, the bucket name is finance, and the object name is Q4_2012.ppt:
https://finance.europe.hcp.example.com/hs3/Q4_2012.ppt
https://europe.hcp.example.com/hs3/finance/Q4_2012.ppt
In these formats, the hs3 interface identifier is case sensitive and must be all lowercase.

Note: Do not use the hs3 interface identifier when using AWS authentication. |
