Amazon Glacier File Retrieval

Downloading a backup I made to Amazon Glacier, back in 2012.
  • Remote Desktop to EC2 Microsoft Windows Server instance
  • Install Fast Glacier 2.6.1
  • Configure Fast Glacier with Amazon Access Key ID and Secret Access Key
  • Request last inventory for all vaults
  • Wait up to 24 hours to complete retrieval
  • Transfer files
  • Delete files
  • Wait 24 hours or so
  • Delete vault
