I had an interesting exchange with Amazon today, where I put in support
tickets asking:
* How can we determine how much space our buckets (or folders) are using?
* Is there a way to do a checksum comparison with local-file vs
s3-file to determine integrity?
Both options were responded with "no". I find the first option odd --
why wouldn't you include at least on the web UI a running total of space
being consumed? Hmmm...
They referred me to "s3cmd du" and another app that might help. The
problem with this, is we have literally thousands of objects under a
particular bucket. I'm actually running a test now of "$ s3cmd
--verbose du s3://ourbucket" to see how long that completes and what it
says. I'm guessing this will take a very long time, and isn't something
we can run on a regular basis due to that fact.
Can you perhaps comment or elaborate on these two issues as it applies
to s3cmd at least, or how I can better accomplish these. I realize AWS
uses an Etag, but that can vary depending upon how the content was
shipped up to the cloud, as I understand.
Thanks.
