Client

class StorageGateway.Client

A low-level client representing AWS Storage Gateway:

client = session.create_client('storagegateway')

These are the available methods:

activate_gateway(**kwargs)

Activates the gateway you previously deployed on your host. In the activation process, you specify information such as the region you want to use for storing snapshots or tapes, the time zone for scheduled snapshots the gateway snapshot schedule window, an activation key, and a name for your gateway. The activation process also associates your gateway with your account; for more information, see UpdateGatewayInformation .

Note

You must turn on the gateway VM before you can activate your gateway.

Request Syntax

response = client.activate_gateway(
    ActivationKey='string',
    GatewayName='string',
    GatewayTimezone='string',
    GatewayRegion='string',
    GatewayType='string',
    TapeDriveType='string',
    MediumChangerType='string'
)
Parameters
  • ActivationKey (string) --

    [REQUIRED]

    Your gateway activation key. You can obtain the activation key by sending an HTTP GET request with redirects enabled to the gateway IP address (port 80). The redirect URL returned in the response provides you the activation key for your gateway in the query string parameter activationKey . It may also include other activation-related parameters, however, these are merely defaults -- the arguments you pass to the ActivateGateway API call determine the actual configuration of your gateway.

    For more information, see https://docs.aws.amazon.com/storagegateway/latest/userguide/get-activation-key.html in the Storage Gateway User Guide.

  • GatewayName (string) --

    [REQUIRED]

    The name you configured for your gateway.

  • GatewayTimezone (string) --

    [REQUIRED]

    A value that indicates the time zone you want to set for the gateway. The time zone is of the format "GMT-hr:mm" or "GMT+hr:mm". For example, GMT-4:00 indicates the time is 4 hours behind GMT. GMT+2:00 indicates the time is 2 hours ahead of GMT. The time zone is used, for example, for scheduling snapshots and your gateway's maintenance schedule.

  • GatewayRegion (string) --

    [REQUIRED]

    A value that indicates the region where you want to store your data. The gateway region specified must be the same region as the region in your Host header in the request. For more information about available regions and endpoints for AWS Storage Gateway, see Regions and Endpoints in the Amazon Web Services Glossary .

    Valid Values: "us-east-1", "us-east-2", "us-west-1", "us-west-2", "ca-central-1", "eu-west-1", "eu-central-1", "eu-west-2", "eu-west-3", "ap-northeast-1", "ap-northeast-2", "ap-southeast-1", "ap-southeast-2", "ap-south-1", "sa-east-1"

  • GatewayType (string) --

    A value that defines the type of gateway to activate. The type specified is critical to all later functions of the gateway and cannot be changed after activation. The default value is STORED .

    Valid Values: "STORED", "CACHED", "VTL", "FILE_S3"

  • TapeDriveType (string) --

    The value that indicates the type of tape drive to use for tape gateway. This field is optional.

    Valid Values: "IBM-ULT3580-TD5"

  • MediumChangerType (string) --

Response Structure

  • (dict) --

    AWS Storage Gateway returns the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the activated gateway. It is a string made of information such as your account, gateway name, and region. This ARN is used to reference the gateway in other API operations as well as resource-based authorization.

    Note

    For gateways activated prior to September 02, 2015, the gateway ARN contains the gateway name rather than the gateway ID. Changing the name of the gateway has no effect on the gateway ARN.

    • GatewayARN (string) --

      The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the gateway. Use the ListGateways operation to return a list of gateways for your account and region.

Examples

Activates the gateway you previously deployed on your host.

response = client.activate_gateway(

File gateway requires AWS Security Token Service (AWS STS) to be activated to enable you create a file share. Make sure AWS STS is activated in the region you are creating your file gateway in. If AWS STS is not activated in the region, activate it. For information about how to activate AWS STS, see Activating and Deactivating AWS STS in an AWS Region in the AWS Identity and Access Management User Guide.

File gateway does not support creating hard or symbolic links on a file share.

create_snapshot(**kwargs)

Initiates a snapshot of a volume.

AWS Storage Gateway provides the ability to back up point-in-time snapshots of your data to Amazon Simple Storage (S3) for durable off-site recovery, as well as import the data to an Amazon Elastic Block Store (EBS) volume in Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2). You can take snapshots of your gateway volume on a scheduled or ad-hoc basis. This API enables you to take ad-hoc snapshot. For more information, see Editing a Snapshot Schedule .

In the CreateSnapshot request you identify the volume by providing its Amazon Resource Name (ARN). You must also provide description for the snapshot. When AWS Storage Gateway takes the snapshot of specified volume, the snapshot and description appears in the AWS Storage Gateway Console. In response, AWS Storage Gateway returns you a snapshot ID. You can use this snapshot ID to check the snapshot progress or later use it when you want to create a volume from a snapshot. This operation is only supported in stored and cached volume gateway type.

Note

To list or delete a snapshot, you must use the Amazon EC2 API. For more information, see DescribeSnapshots or DeleteSnapshot in the EC2 API reference .

Warning

Volume and snapshot IDs are changing to a longer length ID format. For more information, see the important note on the Welcome page.

You can reuse the local disk to create another storage volume.

Before you delete a volume, make sure there are no iSCSI connections to the volume you are deleting. You should also make sure there is no snapshot in progress. You can use the Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) API to query snapshots on the volume you are deleting and check the snapshot status. For more information, go to DescribeSnapshots in the Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud API Reference .

In the request, you must provide the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the storage volume you want to delete.

notify_when_uploaded(**kwargs)

Sends you notification through CloudWatch Events when all files written to your NFS file share have been uploaded to Amazon S3.

AWS Storage Gateway can send a notification through Amazon CloudWatch Events when all files written to your file share up to that point in time have been uploaded to Amazon S3. These files include files written to the NFS file share up to the time that you make a request for notification. When the upload is done, Storage Gateway sends you notification through an Amazon CloudWatch Event. You can configure CloudWatch Events to send the notification through event targets such as Amazon SNS or AWS Lambda function. This operation is only supported in the file gateway type.

For more information, see Getting File Upload Notification in the Storage Gateway User Guide (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/storagegateway/latest/userguide/monitoring-file-gateway.html#get-upload-notification).

    },
}
reset_cache(**kwargs)

Resets all cache disks that have encountered a error and makes the disks available for reconfiguration as cache storage. If your cache disk encounters a error, the gateway prevents read and write operations on virtual tapes in the gateway. For example, an error can occur when a disk is corrupted or removed from the gateway. When a cache is reset, the gateway loses its cache storage. At this point you can reconfigure the disks as cache disks. This operation is only supported in the cached volume and tape types.

Warning

If the cache disk you are resetting contains data that has not been uploaded to Amazon S3 yet, that data can be lost. After you reset cache disks, there will be no configured cache disks left in the gateway, so you must configure at least one new cache disk for your gateway to function properly.

shutdown_gateway(**kwargs)

Shuts down a gateway. To specify which gateway to shut down, use the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the gateway in the body of your request.

The operation shuts down the gateway service component running in the gateway's virtual machine (VM) and not the host VM.

Note

If you want to shut down the VM, it is recommended that you first shut down the gateway component in the VM to avoid unpredictable conditions.

After the gateway is shutdown, you cannot call any other API except StartGateway , DescribeGatewayInformation , and ListGateways . For more information, see ActivateGateway . Your applications cannot read from or write to the gateway's storage volumes, and there are no snapshots taken.

Note

When you make a shutdown request, you will get a 200 OK success response immediately. However, it might take some time for the gateway to shut down. You can call the DescribeGatewayInformation API to check the status. For more information, see ActivateGateway .

If do not intend to use the gateway again, you must delete the gateway (using DeleteGateway ) to no longer pay software charges associated with the gateway.

update_gateway_software_now(**kwargs)

Updates the gateway virtual machine (VM) software. The request immediately triggers the software update.

Note

When you make this request, you get a 200 OK success response immediately. However, it might take some time for the update to complete. You can call DescribeGatewayInformation to verify the gateway is in the STATE_RUNNING state.

Warning

A software update forces a system restart of your gateway. You can minimize the chance of any disruption to your applications by increasing your iSCSI Initiators' timeouts. For more information about increasing iSCSI Initiator timeouts for Windows and Linux, see Customizing Your Windows iSCSI Settings and Customizing Your Linux iSCSI Settings , respectively.
