Tutorial for using the HTTP StoreAll REST API object mode
Follow this procedure to set up and use HTTP StoreAll REST API object mode.

Create a container.
When you first create a container, the account directory, named as the numeric user ID of the
user creating the container, is automatically created as a subdirectory of the root of the HTTP

The optional “Sync-Requested: 1” header makes the operation durable on disk. A
sync command is done in the segments that the file and created parent directories are
located. It means that when a successful HTTP response is returned to the user, the container
has been created and is durable on disk.
The account and user name is either a StoreAll local user, an Active Directory user, or an
LDAP user. The user must be one that can authenticate to use the HTTP share. Use the
ibrix_localusers
command to create a local user. See the HP StoreAll OS CLI Reference
Guide for more information.
For example, for a local user:
curl -X PUT http://192.168.2.2/obj/localuser1/
container-a -u localuser1:mypassword
