How to Disable Archival Storage on a Standard Object Storage Subscription

1 min readUpdated 26 May 2026

Disable archival storage on Vultr Object Storage and restore archived data back to standard tier.

Disabling Archival Storage removes the lifecycle policy and triggers a background job that moves all archived objects back to the Standard bucket. This process runs in the background and may take time depending on the volume of data.

Follow this guide to disable Archival Storage on a Standard Object Storage bucket using the Vultr Console or the Vultr API.

Navigate to Products and click Cloud Storage.
Select Object Storage and click the target Standard subscription.
Click Buckets.
Click the wrench icon next to the target bucket.
Under Options, toggle Archival Storage to disabled.
Click Save Changes.
