Hi, To use s3 storage as the secondary storage you need to create a an nfs staging area - a cache if you like.
The cloudmonkey command would be: create secondarystagingstore provider=NFS zoneid=<$ZONEID> url=nfs://<$STAGING_SRV>/<$STAGING_NFS_PATH> you can then add S3 as the secondary storage: add imagestore name=<$S3_STOR_NAME> provider=S3 accesskey=<$S3_ACC_KEY> secretkey=<$S3_SEC_KEY> bucket=<$S3_BUCKET> usehttps=true endpoint=<$S3_ENDPOINT> I wasn't that familiar with S3 (or AWS user configuration) to start with, so I stumbled around for a bit before I got to grips with it. The endpoint is mostly likely to be s3.amazonaws.com Even though you may request that the bucket be created in a particular region (I choose the EU). The user associated with the access and secret keys you provide need to have permission to read/write to the bucket you've created.
