Trouble with S3 buckets

I have started on configuring S3 buckets on our PowerScale device (PowerScale OneFS 9.10.1.1), created a new zone, S3, a bucket i10:

CS04R-SC-OBJ01-1# isi s3 buckets view i10 --zone s3
      Bucket Name: i10
             Path: /ifs/data/s3/i10
            Owner: root
Object ACL Policy: replace
      Description: 

and a user, i10-user in zone s3. I have set up keys and sorted out the certificate chain on the client side, but rclone can't find the bucket:

[eoi37319@cs04r-sc-serv-35 ~]$ rclone lsd obj:i10 -vv
2026/06/08 09:43:43 DEBUG : rclone: Version "v1.74.2" starting with parameters ["rclone" "lsd" "obj:i10" "-vv"]

The AIs just seem to run in circles - allegedly I do everything right, but reality disagrees. Help?

    Hello diamond.jan,

    It is best to open a support case so that we can pull some logs to see what is going on.

    How do I open a support case? When I try, I find that I don't have the right privilege level; and I can't find a way to connect my login ID to our site ID.

    Hello diamond.jan,

    Hi DELL-Sam,

    This is a relatively new system at Diamond Light Source; we got it in April last year, so I assume we do have a support contract.

    Hello diamond.jan,

    Have you tried to call into support or have you just tried to open a support case via the internet? You might need to call in, so that you can be added to the list for your system serial# so that you can open support cases.

    Thanks to everybody for trying to help. I work in a rather complex environment, and one issue was firewall rules on a switch or router; this meant I had to test this from a system that had a more direct route to the PowerScale. Unfortunately that meant working on an older version of Linux, and the version of the aws just couldn't talk to this S3 setup - and rclone couldn't be installed either.

    I persuaded the network people to let me get through from my workstation, and aws works just fine; rclone complains about the certificates, but that is less of a problem, I think.
