Ensuring the correct bucket owner

Ensure the correct owner is assigned to a bucket after a vault is converted to a container.

About this task

In Container Mode, a container must have one bucket owner; other users can be granted to the account with “full_control” permission but not as a bucket owner.

Procedure

  1. Click on the Change button in the “Access Control” section of the “Vault Configuration” page in Manager Web Interface.
  2. On section to grant user access, identify the user who shall be the owner of the container after converting to Container Mode.
  3. When there is no user granted with “Owner” or “Read/write” permission, move one of them into either “Owner” or “Read/Write” permission; otherwise, the vault is not allowed for conversion.
  4. When there is no user granted to “Owner” permission, but at least one of the users with “Read/Write” permission, perform one of the following to ensure bucket owner is the one with chronologically granted with the “Owner” or “Read/Write” permission:
    • Move the desired bucket owner to “Owner” permission, or
    • Move the rest of users to “Read”, save, move them back to “Read/Write”, and save.
  5. When there are multiple users under the “Owner”, ensure the desired one is the first user chronologically granted with the “Owner” permission.
    • Move other users from “Owner” to “Read/Write”, and save.
    • Move these users back to “Owner”, and save.
  6. Record the user access information for the vault for verification after completing Vault Mode conversion.
