Deploy the Guidance
This Guidance uses AWS CloudFormation templates and stacks to automate its deployment. The CloudFormation template specifies the AWS resources included in this Guidance and their properties. The CloudFormation stack provisions the resources that are described in the template.
Note
This Guidance doesn't delete the original archives or the source Amazon Glacier vault. You must manually delete the archives and vault. For more information, refer to Deleting an Archive in Amazon Glacier in the Amazon Glacier Developer Guide.
If your source Amazon Glacier vault has a
Vault
Lock policy that prevents deletion, you must delete this
policy before deleting the original archives. However, if your Vault
Lock policy is in the Locked state, you can't delete it. See
Amazon Glacier Vault Lock and
Abort
Vault Lock (DELETE lock-policy) in the Amazon Glacier
Developer Guide for more information.
