Syntax

The bm ilm rule import command imports from STDIN by default.
You can input the contents from a .json file, such as one produced by bm ilm rule export.
The following command imports the lifecycle management configuration from
mydata-lifecycle-config.json and applies it to the mydata bucket on the mybuckit deployment:

The command has the following syntax:
bm [GLOBALFLAGS] ilm rule import ALIAS < STDIN

S3 Compatibility
The bm commandline tool is built for compatibility with the AWS S3 API and is tested with Buckit and AWS S3 for expected functionality and behavior.
Buckit provides no guarantees for other S3-compatible services, as their S3 API implementation is unknown and therefore unsupported. While bm commands may work as documented, any such usage is at your own risk.
