Hi,
I'm attempting to download a large file which I have uploaded to
SoftLayer Object Storage using the swift tool. It's downloading only the
manifest and is not downloading the segments. Any tips on figuring out
what is going wrong?
It's entirely possible that the cluster in question lacks static large
object support. Maybe they're running an old version of Swift
(pre-1.8.0/Grizzly), or maybe they haven't enabled the static large
object feature.
What you'll need to do is probe the cluster to see if static large
objects are enabled.
The easy way is to politely ask the cluster with a GET request to /info.
Run `swift stat -v`, then take the "StorageURL" field and change the
path to be just "/info". Strip off any path that's already there.
For example, if the output looks like
StorageURL: http://192.168.22.2:8080/v1/AUTH_test
Auth Token: AUTH_tk89454677b67348e09eefc1d6fe4dfa68
Account: AUTH_test
Containers: 1
[...]
then you'd simply run
curl http://192.168.22.2:8080/info
The response will be a JSON hash, so maybe run it through a JSON
pretty-printer, e.g.
curl http://192.168.22.2:8080/info | python -mjson.tool
On my development machine, the response looks something like this (some
items removed for brevity):
{
"container_quotas": {},
"formpost": {},
"slo": { <---- LOOK FOR THIS
"max_manifest_segments": 1000,
"max_manifest_size": 2097152,
"min_segment_size": 71
},
"swift": {
"account_listing_limit": 10000,
"container_listing_limit": 10000,
"max_account_name_length": 256,
"max_container_name_length": 256,
"max_file_size": 5368709122,
"max_meta_count": 90,
"max_meta_name_length": 128,
"max_meta_value_length": 256,
"max_object_name_length": 1024,
"version": "1.12.0.106.ga08e813"
}
}
If you don't see SLO in there, then you're out of luck. Bug Softlayer
and see if they'll turn it on.
Now, it's also possible that you'll get a 412 response with the body
"Bad URL" when you run the curl command above. That will tell you that
the cluster is running 1.11.0 or earlier, but it won't tell you anything
about SLO support. In that case, try uploading a normal file (cat
picture or something) with the header "X-Static-Large-Object: yes". If
that succeeds, then SLO is disabled; if SLO is enabled, then the PUT
will fail.
