The following steps apply for configuring s3 binary storage and file system metadata storage.
Pass the following java command-line options to your fedora process
-Dfcrepo.modeshape.configuration=classpath:/config/file-s3/repository.json -Daws.bucket=<destination bucket> -Daws.accessKeyId=<aws key> -Daws.secretKey=<aws secret key> |
As a note: for alternative ways to pass aws credentials to your application see the AWS documentation.
