Importing files for each Box

Available in VPC

In addition to the shared data provided by the Data Box Frame manager, you can import files for data analysis into using Box. Since file import and export uses the Object Storage of NAVER Cloud Platform, you must request subscription to Object Storage, create a bucket, and upload the file to the bucket.

1. Request import

File import is the only method available for importing necessary files into a Box that is not connected to the external network. Request for file import after uploading the file to be imported to the Object Storage Bucket. To request file import, follow these steps:

1. From NAVER Cloud Platform console, click Services > Big Data & Analytics > Data Box Frame > Import, in order.
   
2. Click the [Request import] button.
   
3. Enter the relevant information on the import request page and click OK.
   
   • Data box name: select Box to import
   • Source bucket: select the bucket to store the file
   • Source file: click Add after entering the file name
   • Target NAS to save: choose 1 NAS from the Box
   • Memo: enter a memo (up to 50 characters)
4. Check the application details and import status.
5. When the status changes to Import complete, confirm importing the file.

2. Confirm import

The files will be imported to the NAS selected at the time of import request. To check file import, follow these steps:

1. Connect to the Connect Server of the box where you requested file import.
2. Connect to the Hadoop server.
3. Move to the NAS mount point specified when importing files. The NAS's mount point is /mnt/nasw*.

   $ cd /mnt/nasw*
   

4. Check the imported file.

   $ ls [file-name]
   

$ pscp user@ip:/src-path dest-path

3. Precautions when importing (malicious code, size, number of files limited)

• Simultaneous import is limited to 5 files.
• Each file may not exceed 500 MB in size.
• It is possible to reject data that may cause problems at the time of import.
