bm legalhold clear

Syntax

The bm legalhold clear command removes the current legal hold setting for an object or objects.

Removing the legal hold on object(s) does not remove any other GOVERNANCE Mode and COMPLIANCE Mode retention settings in place for the object(s)

The following command removes the legal hold on all objects in the mydata bucket on the mybuckit Buckit deployment:

bm legalhold clear --recursive mybuckit/mydata

The command has the following syntax:

bm [GLOBALFLAGS] legalhold clear \
                 [--recursive]   \
                 [--rewind]      \
                 [--version-id]  \
                 ALIAS
  • Brackets [] indicate optional parameters.

  • Parameters sharing a line are mutually dependent.

  • Parameters separated using the pipe | operator are mutually exclusive.

Copy the example to a text editor and modify as-needed before running the command in the terminal/shell.

Parameters

ALIAS
Required

The Buckit alias and path to the object or objects on which to remove the legal hold. For example:

bm legalhold clear play/mybucket/myobjects/objects.txt
--recursive, r
Optional

Removes the legal hold on all objects in the ALIAS bucket or bucket prefix.

--rewind
Optional

Directs bm legalhold clear to operate only on the object version(s) that existed at specified point-in-time.

  • To rewind to a specific date in the past, specify the date as an ISO8601-formatted timestamp. For example: --rewind "2020.03.24T10:00".

  • To rewind a duration in time, specify the duration as a string in #d#hh#mm#ss format. For example: --rewind "1d2hh3mm4ss".

--rewind requires that the specified ALIAS be an S3-compatible service that supports Bucket Versioning. For Buckit deployments, use bm version to enable or disable bucket versioning.

--version-id, vid
Optional

Directs bm legalhold clear to operate only on the specified object version.

--version-id requires that the specified ALIAS be an S3-compatible service that supports Bucket Versioning. For Buckit deployments, use bm version to enable or disable bucket versioning.

Global Flags

This command supports any of the global flags.

Examples

Behavior

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.
