<p>The <strong class="program">s3qladm</strong> command performs various operations on S3QL buckets.
The file system contained in the bucket <em>must not be mounted</em> when
using <strong class="program">s3qladm</strong> or things will go wrong badly.</p>
<p>The storage url depends on the backend that is used. The S3QL User&#8217;s
Guide should be consulted for a description of the available backends.</p>
