I have been looking at deltacloud with swift as the back end provider
and it looks like the deltacloud/swift combination doesn't support
uploading files larger than 5GB.  According to the following
documentation:

http://docs.openstack.org/developer/swift/overview_large_objects.html

swift has a maximum blob size of 5GB and larger files must be split
into chunks before uploading.  After uploading the chunks, a manifest
file with an X-Object-Manifest attribute must be uploaded to tie the
chunks together.

I wasn't able to pass the X-Object-Manifest attribute through
deltacloudd to the swift back end.  Is there a way to do this?  I
tried the following:

curl -H "X-Object-Manifest: TestBucket/BigFile" -X PUT --user
"account%3Auser:password" --data-binary ""
http://localhost:3001/api/buckets/TestBucket/BigFile

Thanks in advance!

Todd
