+Sets the location constraint of the new buckets. If left unspecified, the
+default S3 datacenter location will be used. Otherwise, you can set it
+to 'EU' for an AWS European data center - note that costs are different.
+This has only effect when your backup environment is initialized in S3 (i.e.
+when buckets are created). If you want to move an existing backup environment
+to another datacenter location, you have to delete its buckets before or create
+a new one by specifing a different I<aws_prefix>.
