      • setEndpoint

        public void setEndpoint​(String endpoint)
        Description copied from interface: AWSStorageGateway
        Overrides the default endpoint for this client ("https://storagegateway.us-east-1.amazonaws.com"). Callers can use this method to control which AWS region they want to work with.

        Callers can pass in just the endpoint (ex: "storagegateway.us-east-1.amazonaws.com") or a full URL, including the protocol (ex: "https://storagegateway.us-east-1.amazonaws.com"). If the protocol is not specified here, the default protocol from this client's ClientConfiguration will be used, which by default is HTTPS.

        For more information on using AWS regions with the AWS SDK for Java, and a complete list of all available endpoints for all AWS services, see: http://developer.amazonwebservices.com/connect/entry.jspa?externalID= 3912

        This method is not threadsafe. An endpoint should be configured when the client is created and before any service requests are made. Changing it afterwards creates inevitable race conditions for any service requests in transit or retrying.

        Specified by:
        setEndpoint in interface AWSStorageGateway
        Parameters:
        endpoint - The endpoint (ex: "storagegateway.us-east-1.amazonaws.com") or a full URL, including the protocol (ex: "https://storagegateway.us-east-1.amazonaws.com") of the region specific AWS endpoint this client will communicate with.

        Description copied from interface: AWSStorageGateway

        Initiates a snapshot of a volume.

        AWS Storage Gateway provides the ability to back up point-in-time snapshots of your data to Amazon Simple Storage (S3) for durable off-site recovery, as well as import the data to an Amazon Elastic Block Store (EBS) volume in Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2). You can take snapshots of your gateway volume on a scheduled or ad-hoc basis. This API enables you to take ad-hoc snapshot. For more information, see Working With Snapshots in the AWS Storage Gateway Console.

        In the CreateSnapshot request you identify the volume by providing its Amazon Resource Name (ARN). You must also provide description for the snapshot. When AWS Storage Gateway takes the snapshot of specified volume, the snapshot and description appears in the AWS Storage Gateway Console. In response, AWS Storage Gateway returns you a snapshot ID. You can use this snapshot ID to check the snapshot progress or later use it when you want to create a volume from a snapshot.

        To list or delete a snapshot, you must use the Amazon EC2 API. For more information, see DescribeSnapshots or DeleteSnapshot in the EC2 API reference.

        Volume and snapshot IDs are changing to a longer length ID format. For more information, see the important note on the Welcome page.

You can optionally specify the Limit field in the body to limit the number of volumes in the response. If the number of volumes returned in the response is truncated, the response includes a Marker field. You can use this Marker value in your subsequent request to retrieve the next set of volumes.

        Specified by:
        listVolumes in interface AWSStorageGateway
        Parameters:
        request - A JSON object that contains one or more of the following fields:

        Returns:
        Result of the ListVolumes operation returned by the service.
      • resetCache

        public ResetCacheResult resetCache​(ResetCacheRequest request)
        Description copied from interface: AWSStorageGateway

        Resets all cache disks that have encountered a error and makes the disks available for reconfiguration as cache storage. If your cache disk encounters a error, the gateway prevents read and write operations on virtual tapes in the gateway. For example, an error can occur when a disk is corrupted or removed from the gateway. When a cache is reset, the gateway loses its cache storage. At this point you can reconfigure the disks as cache disks.

        If the cache disk you are resetting contains data that has not been uploaded to Amazon S3 yet, that data can be lost. After you reset cache disks, there will be no configured cache disks left in the gateway, so you must configure at least one new cache disk for your gateway to function properly.

        Specified by:
        resetCache in interface AWSStorageGateway
        Returns:
        Result of the ResetCache operation returned by the service.
      • retrieveTapeArchive

        public RetrieveTapeArchiveResult retrieveTapeArchive​(RetrieveTapeArchiveRequest request)
        Description copied from interface: AWSStorageGateway

        Retrieves an archived virtual tape from the virtual tape shelf (VTS) to a gateway-VTL. Virtual tapes archived in the VTS are not associated with any gateway. However after a tape is retrieved, it is associated with a gateway, even though it is also listed in the VTS.

        Once a tape is successfully retrieved to a gateway, it cannot be retrieved again to another gateway. You must archive the tape again before you can retrieve it to another gateway.

        Specified by:
        retrieveTapeArchive in interface AWSStorageGateway
        Parameters:
        request - RetrieveTapeArchiveInput
        Returns:
        Result of the RetrieveTapeArchive operation returned by the service.
      • retrieveTapeRecoveryPoint

        public RetrieveTapeRecoveryPointResult retrieveTapeRecoveryPoint​(RetrieveTapeRecoveryPointRequest request)
        Description copied from interface: AWSStorageGateway

        Retrieves the recovery point for the specified virtual tape.

        A recovery point is a point in time view of a virtual tape at which all the data on the tape is consistent. If your gateway crashes, virtual tapes that have recovery points can be recovered to a new gateway.

        The virtual tape can be retrieved to only one gateway. The retrieved tape is read-only. The virtual tape can be retrieved to only a gateway-VTL. There is no charge for retrieving recovery points.

        Specified by:
        retrieveTapeRecoveryPoint in interface AWSStorageGateway
        Parameters:
        request - RetrieveTapeRecoveryPointInput
        Returns:
        Result of the RetrieveTapeRecoveryPoint operation returned by the service.
      • setLocalConsolePassword

        public SetLocalConsolePasswordResult setLocalConsolePassword​(SetLocalConsolePasswordRequest request)
        Description copied from interface: AWSStorageGateway

        Sets the password for your VM local console. When you log in to the local console for the first time, you log in to the VM with the default credentials. We recommend that you set a new password. You don't need to know the default password to set a new password.

        Specified by:
        setLocalConsolePassword in interface AWSStorageGateway
        Parameters:
        request - SetLocalConsolePasswordInput
        Returns:
        Result of the SetLocalConsolePassword operation returned by the service.
      • shutdownGateway

        public ShutdownGatewayResult shutdownGateway​(ShutdownGatewayRequest request)
        Description copied from interface: AWSStorageGateway

        Shuts down a gateway. To specify which gateway to shut down, use the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the gateway in the body of your request.

        The operation shuts down the gateway service component running in the storage gateway's virtual machine (VM) and not the VM.

        If you want to shut down the VM, it is recommended that you first shut down the gateway component in the VM to avoid unpredictable conditions.

        After the gateway is shutdown, you cannot call any other API except StartGateway, DescribeGatewayInformation, and ListGateways. For more information, see ActivateGateway. Your applications cannot read from or write to the gateway's storage volumes, and there are no snapshots taken.

        When you make a shutdown request, you will get a 200 OK success response immediately. However, it might take some time for the gateway to shut down. You can call the DescribeGatewayInformation API to check the status. For more information, see ActivateGateway.

        If do not intend to use the gateway again, you must delete the gateway (using DeleteGateway) to no longer pay software charges associated with the gateway.

        Specified by:
        shutdownGateway in interface AWSStorageGateway
        Parameters:
        request - A JSON object containing the of the gateway to shut down.
        Returns:
        Result of the ShutdownGateway operation returned by the service.
      • startGateway

        public StartGatewayResult startGateway​(StartGatewayRequest request)
        Description copied from interface: AWSStorageGateway

        Starts a gateway that you previously shut down (see ShutdownGateway). After the gateway starts, you can then make other API calls, your applications can read from or write to the gateway's storage volumes and you will be able to take snapshot backups.

        When you make a request, you will get a 200 OK success response immediately. However, it might take some time for the gateway to be ready. You should call DescribeGatewayInformation and check the status before making any additional API calls. For more information, see ActivateGateway.

        To specify which gateway to start, use the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the gateway in your request.

        Specified by:
        startGateway in interface AWSStorageGateway
        Parameters:
        request - A JSON object containing the of the gateway to start.
        Returns:
        Result of the StartGateway operation returned by the service.
      • updateGatewayInformation

        public UpdateGatewayInformationResult updateGatewayInformation​(UpdateGatewayInformationRequest request)
        Description copied from interface: AWSStorageGateway

        Updates a gateway's metadata, which includes the gateway's name and time zone. To specify which gateway to update, use the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the gateway in your request.

        For Gateways activated after September 2, 2015, the gateway's ARN contains the gateway ID rather than the gateway name. However, changing the name of the gateway has no effect on the gateway's ARN.

        Specified by:
        updateGatewayInformation in interface AWSStorageGateway
        Returns:
        Result of the UpdateGatewayInformation operation returned by the service.
      • updateGatewaySoftwareNow

        public UpdateGatewaySoftwareNowResult updateGatewaySoftwareNow​(UpdateGatewaySoftwareNowRequest request)
        Description copied from interface: AWSStorageGateway

        Updates the gateway virtual machine (VM) software. The request immediately triggers the software update.

        When you make this request, you get a 200 OK success response immediately. However, it might take some time for the update to complete. You can call DescribeGatewayInformation to verify the gateway is in the STATE_RUNNING state.

        A software update forces a system restart of your gateway. You can minimize the chance of any disruption to your applications by increasing your iSCSI Initiators' timeouts. For more information about increasing iSCSI Initiator timeouts for Windows and Linux, see Customizing Your Windows iSCSI Settings and Customizing Your Linux iSCSI Settings, respectively.

        Specified by:
        updateGatewaySoftwareNow in interface AWSStorageGateway
        Parameters:
        request - A JSON object containing the of the gateway to update.
        Returns:
        Result of the UpdateGatewaySoftwareNow operation returned by the service.
      • updateVTLDeviceType

        public UpdateVTLDeviceTypeResult updateVTLDeviceType​(UpdateVTLDeviceTypeRequest request)
        Description copied from interface: AWSStorageGateway

        Updates the type of medium changer in a gateway-VTL. When you activate a gateway-VTL, you select a medium changer type for the gateway-VTL. This operation enables you to select a different type of medium changer after a gateway-VTL is activated.

        Specified by:
        updateVTLDeviceType in interface AWSStorageGateway
        Returns:
        Result of the UpdateVTLDeviceType operation returned by the service.
      • shutdown

        public void shutdown()
        Description copied from interface: AWSStorageGateway
        Shuts down this client object, releasing any resources that might be held open. This is an optional method, and callers are not expected to call it, but can if they want to explicitly release any open resources. Once a client has been shutdown, it should not be used to make any more requests.
        Specified by:
        shutdown in interface AWSStorageGateway
      • getCachedResponseMetadata

        public ResponseMetadata getCachedResponseMetadata​(AmazonWebServiceRequest request)
        Description copied from interface: AWSStorageGateway
        Returns additional metadata for a previously executed successful request, typically used for debugging issues where a service isn't acting as expected. This data isn't considered part of the result data returned by an operation, so it's available through this separate, diagnostic interface.

        Response metadata is only cached for a limited period of time, so if you need to access this extra diagnostic information for an executed request, you should use this method to retrieve it as soon as possible after executing a request.

        Specified by:
        getCachedResponseMetadata in interface AWSStorageGateway
        Parameters:
        request - The originally executed request.
        Returns:
        The response metadata for the specified request, or null if none is available.
