Wasabi is now validated for use with Congruity360, which can help migrate your legacy storage data to the cloud by following the simple steps explained below.
Requirements
Buckets were created in Wasabi Hot Cloud Storage (Working With Buckets and Objects).
Storfirst360 was installed, a filesystem was created, a cache was created on this filesystem, and a volume was created to add the Wasabi storage policy. If you need assistance, reach out to Congruity360 (https://www.congruity360.com/).
Below are the Steps in more detail.
Step 1 - Platform Discovery
Log in to the StorFirst360 portal. Click Platforms, then Discover Managed Platforms.
Click Properties. Enter an appropriate Name (see the example “Wasabi” below). Select Sub Type as Wasabi.
Click Address. Select the URL matching the bucket region to use (Note: If the region is not available, contact Congruity360 at https://www.congruity360.com/)
Click Users. Enter Access Key, Secret Key, and Description. Click Run.

You should be able to see the Wasabi platform in the list under Platform Management.
Click the View button (shown above) to view the list of your buckets. Check the status to see if the connection is up or down, and the number of Resources (buckets).
Step 2 - Create a Policy to transfer files to Wasabi
At this stage, we have successfully connected to your Wasabi account from Storfirst360. However, we need to create a policy to tell Storfirst360 to transfer your files from the mounted Volume to Wasabi.
There are two ways to create the storage policy.
The first way is to create it by clicking the Create Storage Policy button on the Platform view screen. (Note: This button sets default values for some Storage Policy fields)
The second way to create a Storage Policy is as follows.
Click Filesystems. Create a Storage Policy by clicking the Storage Policy icon.
Enter a Name and Description (Optional). Select the Storage Platform just created and the appropriate Platform Resource (bucket). Click Create.
Step 3 - Apply Policy
Apply the policy to the Volume. Click Filesystems, then Volumes. Click Edit.
Click Storage Policy. Select Storage Policy.
Step 4 - Test and validation
At this stage, your Storfirst360 is configured to transfer files from the mounted Volume over to your Wasabi bucket. You can test the configuration by uploading a new file to the Storfirst360 drive and confirming whether the file is transferred to your Wasabi bucket via the console or any S3 client you typically use. You can also check the Storfirst360 Dashboard to see if the data is about to be flushed. See the Caches widget below.
