• upload archive to existing vault (less than 5G): aws glacier upload-archive --vault-name awsexamplevault --account-id 123456789012 --body archive.zip
• upload archives > 5G to existing vault
• download archive
• delete contents in vault
  • similar information with comments

• upload to S3 deep storage class (Glacier)
• to download first restore: aws s3api restore-object --bucket sample2.txt --key sample.txt --restore-request '{"Days":5,"GlacierJobParameters":{"Tier":"Standard"}}'
• then check status: aws s3api head-object --bucket DOC-EXAMPLE-BUCKET --key dir1/example.obj
