atime
In POSIX file systems, metadata that specifies the date and time a file was last accessed. In HCP, POSIX metadata that initially specifies the date and time at which an object was ingested. HCP does not automatically change the atime value when the object is accessed.
Users and applications can change this metadata, thereby causing it to no longer reflect the actual ingest time. Additionally, HCP can be configured to synchronize atime values with retention settings.
