Configuring the Amazon S3 Adapter

Overview

The Amazon S3 Adapter software is installed as part of a standard installation of Cisco Workload Automation. However, 
you must perform the following steps to license and configure the adapter before you can schedule and run Amazon S3 
jobs: 



 – Apply the license to the Adapter. You cannot define a Amazon S3 connection until 

you have applied the license from Cisco. 



 – Define Amazon S3 users that the adapter can use to establish authenticated sessions 

with the Amazon S3 service and permit requests to be made on behalf of the authenticated account. 



 – Define a connection so the master can communicate with the Amazon S3 service.

See 

 for details about configuring service.props to control such things as polling, 

output, and log gathering.

Licensing an Adapter

Each CWA Adapter must be separately licensed. You cannot use an Adapter until you apply the license file. If you 
purchase the Adapter after the original installation of CWA, you will receive a new license file authorizing the use of the 
Adapter. 

You might have a Demo license which is good for 30 days, or you might have a Permanent license. The procedures to 
install these license files are described below.
