Applies to

  • ONTAP 9
  • ONTAP S3 Bucket

Answer

  • The is_consistent_etag parameter cannot be set or applied to native S3 buckets.
  • ETags in native S3 buckets are already consistent across GET/HEAD/LIST operations, as they are calculated using object size and modification time (mtime).
  • If you require strict ETag consistency for a bucket that is accessed via both S3 and NAS protocols (a duality bucket), you may set is_consistent_etag=true on that bucket.
  • For native S3 buckets, no workaround is needed as ETags are consistent by design.

Additional Information

Starting from ONTAP 9.17 the parameter -is-consistent-etag can be enabled on the NAS s3 buckets.
