glacier-vault-remove

This tool can help you remove an Amazon Glacier vault, even if it is not empty.

It will remove all archives contained inside the vault, and then remove the vault itself.

It is intended to work well with vaults containing a lot of archives. I developed it because my vault contained more than 500'000 archives, and all other softwares crashed when I tried to remove all of them.

Install

You can install the dependencies (boto) by calling the install script :

python setup.py install

Configure

Then create a credentials.json file in the same directory as removeVault.py :

{
	"AWSAccessKeyId": "YOURACCESSKEY",
	"AWSSecretKey":   "YOURSECRETKEY"
}

Use

You can then use the script like this :

python .\removeVault.py REGION-NAME VAULT-NAME

Example :

python .\removeVault.py eu-west-1 my_vault

Debug

By default, only the INFO messages will be printed to console. You can add a third argument "DEBUG" to the removeVault.py script if you want to show all messages.

Example :

python .\removeVault.py eu-west-1 my_vault DEBUG
