AWS API Changes

2018/06/28 - AWS Storage Gateway - 6 new 1 updated api methods

Changes AWS Storage Gateway now enables you to use Server Message Block (SMB) protocol to store and access objects in Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3).

UpdateSMBFileShare (new)

Link ¶

Updates a Server Message Block (SMB) file share. This operation is only supported in the file gateway type.

Note

To leave a file share field unchanged, set the corresponding input field to null. This operation is only supported in the file gateway type.

Warning

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.
