Last Update vor 2 Monaten

Description: Checks if your Amazon S3 buckets have replication rules enabled. The rule is NON_COMPLIANT if an S3 bucket does not have a replication rule or has a replication rule that is not enabled.


Trigger type: Configuration changes


AWS Region: All supported AWS regions except Europe (Spain) Region


How to Resolve Manually

To resolve this manually, you will first need your bucket and a second bucket created to which you are replicating into.


  • Click "Replication Rules" within the "Management" tab of your source bucket
  • In the "Destination" section you can define a bucket in this AWS account, or even specify a bucket in a different AWS Account. Remember to ensure this destination bucket is hosted in a different region!
  • Also ensure to select a suitable IAM role for this rule. It should have the necessary permissions to read from the source and write to the target bucket.


Once you have selected these items, review your replication rule and save. You have now successfully setup cross-replication for your S3 Bucket!
