SYNOPSIS
Top-level gsutil Options
DESCRIPTION
gsutil supports separate options for the top-level gsutil command and
the individual sub-commands (like cp, rm, etc.) The top-level options
control behavior of gsutil that apply across commands. For example, in
the command:
gsutil -m cp -p file gs://bucket/obj
the -m option applies to gsutil, while the -p option applies to the cp
sub-command.
OPTIONS
-D Shows HTTP requests/headers and additional debug info needed when
posting support requests.
-DD Shows HTTP requests/headers, additional debug info plus HTTP
upstream payload.
-h Allows you to specify certain HTTP headers, for example:
gsutil -h "Cache-Control:public,max-age=3600" \\
-h "Content-Type:text/html" cp ...
Note that you need to quote the headers/values that
contain spaces (such as "Content-Disposition: attachment;
filename=filename.ext"), to avoid having the shell split them
into separate arguments.
The following headers are supported:
Cache-Control
Content-Disposition
Content-Encoding
Content-Language
Content-MD5
Content-Type
Custom metadata headers with a matching Cloud Storage Provider
prefix, such as:
x-goog-meta-
Note that for gs:// URLs, the Cache Control header is specific to
the API being used. The XML API will accept any cache control
headers and return them during object downloads. The JSON API
respects only the public, private, no-cache, and max-age cache
control headers, and may add its own no-transform directive even
if it was not specified. See 'gsutil help apis' for more
information on gsutil's interaction with APIs.
See also "gsutil help setmeta" for the ability to set metadata
fields on objects after they have been uploaded.
-m Causes supported operations (acl ch, acl set, cp, mv, rm, rsync,
and setmeta) to run in parallel. This can significantly improve
performance if you are performing operations on a large number of
files over a reasonably fast network connection.
gsutil performs the specified operation using a combination of
multi-threading and multi-processing, using a number of threads
and processors determined by the parallel_thread_count and
parallel_process_count values set in the boto configuration
file. You might want to experiment with these values, as the
best values can vary based on a number of factors, including
network speed, number of CPUs, and available memory.
Using the -m option may make your performance worse if you
are using a slower network, such as the typical network speeds
offered by non-business home network plans. It can also make
your performance worse for cases that perform all operations
locally (e.g., gsutil rsync, where both source and desination URLs
are on the local disk), because it can "thrash" your local disk.
If a download or upload operation using parallel transfer fails
before the entire transfer is complete (e.g. failing after 300 of
1000 files have been transferred), you will need to restart the
entire transfer.
Also, although most commands will normally fail upon encountering
an error when the -m flag is disabled, all commands will
continue to try all operations when -m is enabled with multiple
threads or processes, and the number of failed operations (if any)
will be reported at the end of the command's execution.
-o Set/override values in the boto configuration value, in the format
:=, e.g. gsutil -o "Boto:proxy=host" ...
This will not pass the option to gsutil integration tests, which
run in a separate process.
-q Causes gsutil to perform operations quietly, i.e., without
reporting progress indicators of files being copied or removed,
etc. Errors are still reported. This option can be useful for
running gsutil from a cron job that logs its output to a file, for
which the only information desired in the log is failures.
