• Atmos Object Rename

Rename Object

Renames a file or a directory within its current namespace. Requires the "x-emc-path" custom header to provide the full path to the new file or directory name. If the new name passed in on the "x-emc-path" header is in Unicode format, the client application must percent-encode the data, and include the "x-emc-utf8" header on the request. Use the optional "x-emc-force" header to specify whether the operation should overwrite the target file or directory if it already exists. To overwrite the target file or directory (if it already exists), set "x-emc-force" to true. If "x-emc-force" is not specified or set to false, the target file will not be overwritten and the rename operation will fail. A directory must be empty to be overwritten. This operation is not supported in the object interface. It returns an error code 1042 if attempted.
