 `client` | When specifying client settings (e.g. `s3.client.default.access_key`), you can use a string other than `default` (e.g. `s3.client.backup-role.access_key`). If you used an alternate name, change this value to match. Default and recommended value is `default`. Optional.

+`disable_chunked_encoding` | Disables chunked encoding for compatibility with some storage services. Default is `false`. Optional.
 `max_restore_bytes_per_sec` | The maximum rate at which snapshots restore. Default is 40 MB per second (`40m`). Optional.
 `max_snapshot_bytes_per_sec` | The maximum rate at which snapshots take. Default is 40 MB per second (`40m`). Optional.
 `readonly` | Whether the repository is read-only. Useful when migrating from one cluster (`"readonly": false` when registering) to another cluster (`"readonly": true` when registering). Optional.
