Configuring DuraCloud Storage

DuraCloud Account Settings

*DuraCloud Account / Service Settings:* 
In order to configure DuraCloud Storage, you first must have an existing DuraCloud Account.  This account's settings should be configured in your {{\[dspace\]/config/modules/duracloud.cfg}} file as follows:

1. DuraCloud HostName: This is the location of your DuraCloud instance (the URL you tend to access for your account). Just provide the hostname.

   Code Block
   # DuraCloud service location (just the hostname) host = demo.duracloud.org

2. DuraCloud Service Port: This is the port that DuraCloud is running on. It is almost always "443" unless you have installed DuraCloud yourself and configured it differently.

   Code Block
   # DuraCloud service port (usually 443 for https) port = 443

3. DuraCloud's "DuraStore" path: This the path to DuraCloud's "DuraStore" service. It is almost always "durastore" unless you have installed DuraCloud yourself and configured it differently.

   Code Block
   context = durastore

4. DuraCloud Username & Password: Finally, fill out your account username & password in these settings. Please note, as this file now contains your DuraCloud account information, we recommend securing it (if possible). Just ensure it is still readable by the system user that DSpace runs as.

   # DuraCloud user name username = rep-agent # DuraCloud password password = passw0rd
