I've migrated to the new DreamObjects us-east1 cluster (info about the new cluster here: https://help.dreamhost.com/hc/en-us/articles/360002135871-Cluster-migration-procedure).

Post-processing options don't allow you to specify cluster hostnames, wondering how this will be handled by Akeeba.

In fact this was on my to-do list this morning (I received their email while I was on vacation last week). DreamObjects is just an Amazon S3 implementation. Our DreamObject engine is nothing more than our S3 engine with a fixed endpoint (objects-us-west-1.dream.io) and signature method v2. That is, we only supported the US West cluster.

Instead of waiting for us to release a new version of Akeeba Backup you can simply change the post-processing to Amazon S3 and use the custom endpoint objects-us-east-1.dream.io and make sure that the signature method is v2 and that you have not enabled chunked uploading (they don't support that feature). That's all there is to it.

Thanks! Just to clarify – by not enabling chunked uploading, are you referring to the 'Disable multipart uploads' checkbox?

**Edit: nevermind, I just gave it a shot (with multipart disabled), and all is well. Thanks!
