ProblemLink to this anchor

I need to retrieve my data from Scaleway Glacier, but the restore operation does not seem to work.

CauseLink to this anchor

The time it takes to restore an object depends on the size of the object, and if multipart is configured. If your object is larger than 1 MB, it can take anywhere from a few minutes to 24 hours for restore to start.

SolutionLink to this anchor

Run the following command in a terminal to retrieve the metadata of the object you want to restore:

aws s3api head-object --bucket <bucket-name> --key <object-name>

An output similar to the following displays:

{
    "AcceptRanges": "bytes",
    "Restore": "ongoing-request=\"true\"",
    "LastModified": "2024-03-13T16:30:44+00:00",
    "ContentLength": 5,
    "ETag": "\"sd11r084349bc25d97e29393ced1d\"",
    "ContentType": "application/octet-stream",
    "Metadata": {},
    "StorageClass": "GLACIER"
}

The "Restore": "ongoing-request=\"true\"", line indicates that the restore operation has already started.
