Follow below steps to get started with MinIO monitoring using Prometheus.

### 1. Download Prometheus

[Download the latest release](https://prometheus.io/download) of Prometheus for your platform, then extract it

```sh
tar xvfz prometheus-*.tar.gz
cd prometheus-*
```

- Chroot installed on your machine.

## 2. Install MinIO in Chroot

```sh
mkdir -p /mnt/export/${USER}/bin
wget https://dl.min.io/server/minio/release/linux-amd64/minio -O /mnt/export/${USER}/bin/minio
chmod +x /mnt/export/${USER}/bin/minio
```

Bind your `proc` mount to the target chroot directory

```
sudo mount --bind /proc /mnt/export/${USER}/proc
```

* MinIO doesn't currently support PFX certificates.

### 3.1 Use `certgen` to Generate a Certificate

Download [`certgen`](https://github.com/minio/certgen/releases/latest) for your specific operating system and platform.

`certgen` is a simple *Go* tool to generate self-signed certificates, and provides SAN certificates with DNS and IP entries:

```sh

mc mb myminio/functionbucket
```

Create a file `testobject` with some test data that will be transformed
```
cat > testobject << EOF
MinIO is a High Performance Object Storage released under GNU Affero General Public License v3.0. It is API compatible with Amazon S3 cloud storage service. Use MinIO to build high performance infrastructure for machine learning, analytics and application data workloads.
EOF
```

### Notes

* By default the Docker Compose file uses the Docker image for latest MinIO server release. You can change the image tag to pull a specific [MinIO Docker image](https://hub.docker.com/r/minio/minio/).
