I'm fairly certain you would have to recall the file from Glacier to S3, which can take some time depending on the size of the file and from there you would use NetBackup to restore the file. We do something similar with our archives.
Also, Glacier isn't meant for storage that will be retrieved often so hopefully you have a local copy on disk and a copy that goes to S3->Glacier.
From AWS documentation -
- AWS offers object lifecycle management to transfer object to different storage classes for cost optimization.
- Archived objects in Glacier cannot be accessed through Glacier Console or Glacier API.Since Amazon S3 stores archive objects to Glacier, access to those objects will available only from S3 API or S3 Console.
- While retrieving archived objects, a temporary copy of objects are created and objects are restored from that temporary copy whereas actual object reside in glacier.
- Typical time required to make temporary copy is around 5 hrs.
My understanding was:
- Backup application directly communicate with S3 for any backup and restore operation
- Since archived object metadata is reside in S3, backup application can view the backed-up contents.
- When backup application initiate restore, S3 brings object from Glacier and makes it available for restore.
when i am restoring from Netbackup - getting this error -
