Thanks Venkat for quick response. Unfortunately secret keys are auto 
generated and all of them have = at the end :-(. Is there a way to receive 
a patch fix or unofficial fix to unblock . Do you have a rough estimate (1 
month, 3 months, 6 months) ZjQcmQRYFpfptBannerStart

Do you have a rough estimate (1 month, 3 months, 6 months) of when the 
next release with such a fix might be available?

Hi,

AFM does not accept character '='  as part of  access and secret keys. It 
matches the keys with below expression
 
"$KEY" =~ ^[0-9a-zA-Z/+._]+$ 

We will fix it to accept other allowed characters in future releases 
including char '=', for now generate secret key without '=' char.

Hello GPFS experts, 
 
Today I was trying to configure AFM with Object Storage (AWS s3 
compatible) and its failing for me.  I was wondering if you can help me or 
introduce me to the person/team who can help.  
 
Failed:
mmafmcoskeys afm-ocios:
us-ashburn-1 at hpc_limited_availability.compat.objectstorage.us-ashburn-1.oraclecloud.com
set 22f79xxxx  clTQ1t4bGL57ca+kFKgJgKrteAwnzhj0854Zeg=
invalid skey (secret key)
mmafmcoskeys: Command failed. Examine previous error messages to determine 
cause.
 
I figured out, it fails because it doesn’t like the equal to “=” sign in 
the secret key.  
 
Proof: 
mmafmcoskeys afm-ocios:
us-ashburn-1 at hpc_limited_availability.compat.objectstorage.us-ashburn-1.oraclecloud.com
set 22f79xxxx  clTQ1t4bGL57ca+kFKgJgKrteAwnzhj0854Zeg
Works
mmafmcoskeys afm-ocios:
us-ashburn-1 at hpc_limited_availability.compat.objectstorage.us-ashburn-1.oraclecloud.com 
get
22f79xxxx:clTQ1t4bGL57ca+kFKgJgKrteAwnzhj0854Zeg
 
I tried to use  single quote,  double quote around the secret keys, but it 
still fails. 
mmafmcoskeys afm-ocios:
us-ashburn-1 at hpc_limited_availability.compat.objectstorage.us-ashburn-1.oraclecloud.com
set 22f79xxxx  'clTQ1t4bGL57ca+kFKgJgKrteAwnzhj0854Zeg='
 
mmafmcoskeys afm-ocios:
us-ashburn-1 at hpc_limited_availability.compat.objectstorage.us-ashburn-1.oraclecloud.com
set 22f79xxxx  “clTQ1t4bGL57ca+kFKgJgKrteAwnzhj0854Zeg=”
 
I also tried to add the key in the keyfile and still it fails. 
 
[root at dr-compute-1 ras]# mmafmcoskeys afm-ocios:
us-ashburn-1 at hpc_limited_availability.compat.objectstorage.us-ashburn-1.oraclecloud.com
set --keyfile /var/adm/ras/keyfile
invalid skey (secret key)
mmafmcoskeys: Command failed. Examine previous error messages to determine 
cause.
