I'd like to transfer data from s3 to a table in redshift postgres.
It is stored as a csv in my bucket on s3.
I set up amazon CLI and already ran configure and added my credentials and gave myself an IAM user with access to the s3 bucket and the redshift postgres instance.
I ran the command aws copy tmp3 from s3://[mybucket]/[mycsv].csv
But I got back the error aws: error: argument command: Invalid choice, valid choices are and copy is not on the list of vlaid commands that they offer.
Copy is not a supported argument, what you're looking for is cp. Have a look at the AWS CLI Documentation for S3.
What you're looking for is probably this:
aws s3 cp s3://[mybucket]/[mycsv].csv tmp3

I am trying to copy all the data from an AWS S3 bucket to a GCS bucket. Acc. to this answer rsync command should have been able to do that. But I am receiving the following error when trying to do that
Caught non-retryable exception while listing s3://my-s3-source/: AccessDeniedException: 403 InvalidAccessKeyId
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Error><Code>InvalidAccessKeyId</Code><Message>The AWS Access Key Id you provided does not exist in our records.</Message><AWSAccessKeyId>{REDACTED}</AWSAccessKeyId><RequestId>{REDACTED}</RequestId><HostId>{REDACTED}</HostId></Error>
CommandException: Caught non-retryable exception - aborting rsync
This is the command I am trying to run
gsutil -m rsync -r s3://my-s3-source gs://my-gcs-destination
I have the AWS CLI installed which is working fine with the same AccessKeyId and listing buckets as well as objects in the bucket.
Any idea what am I doing wrong here?
gsutil can work with both Google Storage and S3.
gsutil rsync -d -r s3://my-aws-bucket gs://example-bucket
You just need to configure it with both - Google and your AWS S3 credentials. For GCP you need to add the Amazon S3 credentials to ~/.aws/credentials or you can also store your AWS credentials in the .boto configuration file for gsutil. However, when you're accessing an Amazon S3 bucket with gsutil, the Boto library uses your ~/.aws/credentials file to override other credentials, such as any that are stored in ~/.boto.
=== 1st update ===
Also make sure you have to make sure you have the correct IAM permissions on the GCP side and the correct AWS IAM credentials. Also depending if you have a prior version of Migrate for Compute Engine (formerly Velostrata) use this documentation and make sure you set up the VPN, IAM credentials and AWS network. If you are using the current version (5.0), use the following documentation to check everything is configured correctly.
Apologies, this is such a rookie question. A report I set up is being run daily and deposited in the customer S3 bucket. I was given the command to run if I wanted to inspect the bucket contents. I want to verify my report is as expected in there, so I'd like to access it. But I have no idea where to actually run the command.
Do I need to install AWS CLI and run it there, is there something I need to install so I can run it from Terminal. The command has the AWS secret key, access key and URL.
If you wish to access an object from Amazon S3 on your own computer:
Download the AWS Command-Line Interface (CLI)
Run: aws configure and provide your Access Key & Secret Key
To list a bucket: aws s3 ls s3://bucket-name
To download an object: aws s3 cp s3://bucket-name/object-name.txt .
(That last period means "to the current directory".)
I'm new to cloud infrastructure for Deep Learning and trying to use AWS for deep learning first time and I don't know how to access my data from EC2 launched instance.
My data is stored is S3 bucket but I'm not able to find a way how to get it together and start training.
In that EC2 instance. login via ssh.
install aws cli if its not there
configure credentials are add permission for ec2 instance to use s3 bucket.
otherwise add aws secret and access key
get files to your local system
aws s3 cp s3://mybucket/test.txt test2.txt
Get files from local to s3
aws s3 cp test.txt s3://mybucket/test2.txt
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/reference/s3/cp.html#examples
I am trying to copy a file from S3 to an Ec2 instance, here is the strange behavior
Following command runs perfectly fine and show me the contents of s3, that I want to access
$aws s3 ls
2016-05-05 07:40:57 folder1
2016-05-07 15:04:42 my-folder
then I issue following command (also successful)
$ aws s3 ls s3://my-folder
2016-05-07 16:44:50 6007 myfile.txt
but when I try to copy this file, I recive an error as follows
$aws s3 cp s3://my-folder/myfile.txt ./
A region must be specified --region or specifying the region in a
configuration file or as an environment variable. Alternately, an
endpoint can be specified with --endpoint-url
I simply want to copy txt file from s3 to ec2 instance.
At least modify the above command to copy the contents. I am not sure about region as If I visit S3 from web it says
"S3 does not require region selection"
What is happening on the earth?
Most likely something is not working right, you should not be able to list the bucket if your regions is not setup as default in the aws configure.
Therefore from my experience with S3 if this works:
aws s3 ls s3://my-folder
then this should work as well:
aws s3 cp s3://my-folder/myfile.txt ./
However if it's asking you for region, then you need to provide it.
Try this to get the bucket region:
aws s3api get-bucket-location --bucket BUCKET
And then this to copy the file:
aws s3 cp --region <your_buckets_region> s3://my-folder/myfile.txt ./
If I visit S3 from web it says
"S3 does not require region selection"
S3 and bucket regions can be very confusing especially with that message. As it is the most misleading information ever IMO when it comes to s3 regions. Every bucket has got specific region (default is us-east-1) unless you have enabled cross-region replication.
You can choose a region to optimize latency, minimize costs, or
address regulatory requirements. Objects stored in a region never
leave that region unless you explicitly transfer them to another
region. For more information about regions, see Accessing a Bucket: in
the Amazon Simple Storage Service Developer Guide.
How about
aws s3 cp s3://my-folder/myfile.txt .
# or
aws s3 cp s3://my-folder/myfile.txt myfile.txt
I suspect the problem is something to do with the local path parser.
aws cli s3 fileformat parser
It is kinda strange because aws cli read the credential and region config.
The fix is specifying the region, below explains how to get the bucket region if you cant get it from the cli.
aws s3 cp s3://xxxxyyyyy/2008-Nissan-Sentra.pdf myfile.pdf --region us-west-2
In my amazon EC2 instance, I have a folder named uploads. In this folder I have 1000 images. Now I want to copy all images to my new S3 bucket. How can I do this?
First Option sm3cmd
Use s3cmd
s3cmd get s3://AWS_S3_Bucket/dir/file
Take a look at this s3cmd documentation
if you are on linux, run this on the command line:
sudo apt-get install s3cmd
or Centos, Fedore.
yum install s3cmd
Example of usage:
s3cmd put my.file s3://pactsRamun/folderExample/fileExample
Second Option
Using Cli from amazon
Update
Like #tedder42 said in the comments, instead of using cp, use sync.
Take a look at the following syntax:
aws s3 sync <source> <target> [--options]
Example:
aws s3 sync . s3://my-bucket/MyFolder
More information and examples available at Managing Objects Using High-Level s3 Commands with the AWS Command Line Interface
aws s3 sync your-dir-name s3://your-s3-bucket-name/folder-name
Important: This will copy each item in your named directory into the s3 bucket folder you selected. This will not copy your directory as a whole.
Or, you can use the following command for one selected file.
aws s3 sync your-dir-name/file-name s3://your-s3-bucket-name/folder-name/file-name
Or you can use a wild character to select all. Note that this will copy your directory as a whole and also generate metadata and save them to your s3 bucket folder.
aws s3 sync . s3://your-s3-bucket-name/folder-name
To copy from EC2 to S3 use the below code in the Command line of EC2.
First, you have to give "IAM Role with full s3 Access" to your EC2 instance.
aws s3 cp Your_Ec2_Folder s3://Your_S3_bucket/Your_folder --recursive
Also note on aws cli syncing with s3 it is multithreaded and uploads multiple parts of a file at one time. The number of threads however, is not configurable at this time.
aws s3 mv /home/inbound/ s3://test/ --recursive --region us-west-2
This can be done very simply. Follow the following steps:
Open the AWS EC2 on console.
Select the instance and navigate to actions.
Select instances settings and select Attach/Replace IAM Role
When this is done, connect to the AWS instance and the rest will be done via the following CLI commands:
aws s3 cp filelocation/filename s3://bucketname
Hence you don't need to install or do any extra efforts.
Please note... the file location refers to the local address. And the bucketname is the name of your bucket.
Also note: This is possible if your instance and S3 bucket are in the same account.
Cheers.
We do have a dryrun feature available for testing.
To begin with I would assign ec2-instance a role to be able read
write to S3
SSH into the instance and perform the following
vi tmp1.txt
aws s3 mv ./ s3://bucketname-bucketurl.com/ --dryrun
If this works then all you have to do is either create a script to
upload all files with specific from this folder to s3 bucket
I have done the wrritten the following command in my script to move
files older than 2 minutes from current directory to bucket/folder
cd dir; ls . -rt | xargs -I FILES find FILES -maxdepth 1 -name
'*.txt' -mmin +2 -exec aws s3 mv '{}' s3://bucketurl.com
