Dear Giovanni,

I checked your instance, and now it is working. The problem was with my
blade server networking, but now everythings work.
If something wrong, do not hesitate to write us.

Sorry for the inconvience.

Best Regads,
Gergő

Closing the ticket as it is already resolved by the Budapest node team. Thank you Gergo and Sandor!

Hi Sándor,
since yesterday our instance "fv03" in the Budapest node is not
responsive, although in the "running" state.
This morning I intended to stop and restart it; but after issuing the
"stop instance" command, it remains in the "running" state with the
"powering off" task active.
In this situation id doesn't accept another "stop" command, neither
"reboot" or "create snapshot".
Could you help me?
Thank you in advance, Giovanni

Now our "fv03" instance is working again.
I don't know if you performed some recovery action.
Thank you anyway.
Best regards, Giovanni

Dear Sandor,

during the past months we had performed simple tests on the Object
Storage by creating containers and uploading objects from the web
interface of the FI-Lab portal.
In order to test some application functions using the Object Storage
API, we started with the execution of the sample code in the Object
Storage wiki
(https://forge.fiware.org/plugins/mediawiki/wiki/fiware/index.php/Object_Storage_-_User_and_Programmers_Guide#Programmer_Guide_-_Accessing_Object_Storage_via_the_native_API).
But we met a few problems, due to our lack of experience and possibly to
uncomplete documentation.

1. Some swift endpoints listed as available don't respond

We repeatedly executed the sample code without success. Then, since it
seems that there are some 10 swift endpoints in the list, while the
sample code in the wiki always picks always the same endpoint
(http://api3.ficore.imaginlab.fr:8080/v1 in our case), we iterated on
the list until we found one service provider working
(http://api2.xifi.imaginlab.fr:8080/v1).

2. Cannot find complete documentation on the OS service provided by the
FI-Lab

By executing the modified sample code, eventually we are able to create
a test container and to put a test object inside it.
At the start we were confused: not finding specific information on the
endpoints of the swift service, we tried to use the first one that
allowed us to execute the test procedure (modified sample code) with
success.
We thought that the different endpoints were working as a federation
managing a shared namespace. Only by trying we became aware that we
should pick from the list the Budapest2 endpoint in order to get a
synchronized view of our containers from both the Fi-lab dashboard and
the API interface.
By the way: we noticed that, adding an object to a container through the
REST API, the count of objects in the web view is refreshed with
considerable delay, possibly due to some caching.

Could you tell us where we could find some more documentation, besides
the general one concerning the Object Storage specifications and the
Object Storage API?
Thank you in advance.

Best regards, Giovanni

Dear Giovanni,

For Object Storage you can use the official OpenStack Swift documentation that is available here:
http://developer.openstack.org/api-ref-objectstorage-v1.html

I also found a book on it:
https://www.safaribooksonline.com/library/view/openstack-swift/9781491903841/ch04.html

I'm not 100% sure that the following examples work or not, but you can also check them.
1. Python examples with swiftclient package:
https://swiftstack.com/docs/integration/python-swiftclient.html
2. C++ examples:
https://github.com/bshafiee/Swift_CPP_SDK

One more thing: You can only access to the Object Storage endpoints that are located in the region you are associated with. This means that the end point you mentioned is in Lannion region, and probably you are not assigned to that region and this is why it does not work.

Best regards,
Sandor

Hi Sandor,

Thanks very much for the tips. Which endpoint should they use on the Budapest node? and how can one find out about this? Is this info listed anywhere in the cloud portal, etc?

Kind regards,

ilknur

Dear Ilknur and Geiovanni,

I do not know if it is available in the cloud portal, but through the keystone api you can get this info with the following commands:

curl -i 'http://cloud.lab.fiware.org:4730/v2.0/tokens' -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Accept: application/json" -d '{"auth": {"passwordCredentials":

, "tenantId": "*******"}}' | sed 's/{"endpoints":/\n

,

After that the publicURL can be used to access the swift endpoint.

I hope this helps you.
Best regards,
Sandor

Comment by toffoli@linkroma.it :

Thank you Sandor, thank you Ilknur,

in fact, by issuing the equivalent request inside our Python test
procedure, we got a big Json data structure including, for each type of
service, the list of the endpoints that we should be able to access.
With my email, I wished mainly to give a feedback, useful for other
people and for improving the documentation, on the difficulty that we
met at finding and interpreting that information.

Best regards, Giovanni

Dear Giovanni,

May I kindly recommend writing to fiware-fiadopt-coaching@lists.fiware.org if you have a new inquiry in the future? So a new ticket is created for different issues/inquries. This could allow all of us to track the conversations more effectively.

On the other hand, for this particular case, I will try to create a new ticket in FIWARE Lab help desk to raise awareness for the difficulty of finding Swift end points.

Kind regards,

ilknur
