Bastionhost:Export session videos to OSS

Data transfer and billing description

When you execute an audit data archiving task on your bastion host, the audit data within the archiving time range is exported to OSS. The audit data includes video files and session list files. OSS charges you based on the amount of data that is exported. For more information, see Billing overview.

Prerequisites

• If you use a Resource Access Management (RAM) user to configure a video archiving task, make sure that the AliyunOSSReadOnlyAccess and AliyunYundunBastionHostFullAccess policies are attached to the RAM user. For more information, see Grant permissions to a RAM user.

• You are logged on to the OSS console. A bucket is created in the console. The region in which the bucket resides must be the same as the region in which the bastion host resides. For more information, see Create a bucket.

Procedure

Archiving tasks are serial. If an existing archiving task is pending or being executed, you cannot create a new archiving task.

1. Log on to the Bastionhost console. In the top navigation bar, select the region where your Bastionhost instance is located.

2. In the list of Bastionhost instances, find the target instance and click Manage.

3. In the navigation pane on the left, click System Settings.

4. On the Video Archiving tab, configure the parameters. The following table describes the parameters.

   Parameter		Description
   Archiving Settings	Bucket Region	The region in which the destination bucket resides. By default, videos are exported to the region in which the bastion host resides. You cannot change the region.
   	Select Archiving Bucket	You can select the target Bucket for archiving.
   	Archiving Directory	The file directory that is automatically created in the specified bucket.
   Export Recordings	Select Archiving Time Range	The time range of the session videos that you want to export.
