Configuring the AWS S3 Bucket for the First Time

The first time that you run the Archive Migration Tool, the system will prompt you to configure the Amazon S3 bucket to support the data migration.

  1. Select Manage S3 Bucket from the initial menu:

    What do you want to do?
    [ x ] Manage S3 Bucket
    [ ] Archives Available
    [ ] Logger Information
    [ ] Generator ID
    [ ] Exit

  2. To configure the bucket, select Yes:

    The S3 Bucket is not configured yet. Do you want to add an S3 Bucket?
    [ x ] Yes
    [ ] No

  3. Specify values for the following prompts:

    Enter the Alias:
    Enter the Tenant ID:
    Enter the Access Key:
    Enter the Security Access Key

    Where:

    ALIAS

    Required

    Specifies the alias name that ArcSight SaaS uses to identify the Logger. The default value is Logger_IP_Without_Dots.

    The system transforms the IP address from the dotted-decimal format (four 8-bit fields separated by periods) to a 12-digit number. If any of the 8-bit fields of the IP has less than 3 digits, the system will complete the field adding a 0 before it.

    For example, for 15.214.134.2, the value would be 015214134002.

    TENANT ID

    Required on first use and when reconfiguring the bucket

    Represents the Amazon S3 Tenant ID.

    This value is the same as the <your_tenant_name> value mentioned in Providing the User ARN to the OpenText SaaS Team.

    ACCESS KEY

    The Amazon S3 bucket Access Key ID from your IAM user, mentioned in Understanding the AWS IAM User. This parameter is only mandatory the first time the tool is used, or whenever modifications to buckets are needed.

    SECURITY ACCESS KEY

    The Amazon S3 bucket Secret Access Key from your IAM user, mentioned in Understanding the AWS IAM User. This parameter is only mandatory the first time the tool is used, or whenever modifications are needed.

    You obtain the bucket's Tenant ID, Access Key and Security Access Key when you perform the Preparing for Data Ingestion process.

  4. Press Enter for the configuration to be checked.

    If the setup is finalized correctly, you will see the following message:

    Successful configuration!
