- MinIO object storage set up per <https://min.io/docs/minio/linux/index.html>
- Veeam requires TLS connections to the object storage.  This can be configured per <https://min.io/docs/minio/linux/operations/network-encryption.html>
- The S3 bucket, Access Key and Secret Key have to be created before and outside of Veeam.
- Configure the minio client for the Veeam MinIO endpoint - <https://min.io/docs/minio/linux/index.html#quickstart-for-linux>

Example: Limit a MinIO cluster to accept at max 1600 simultaneous S3 API requests across all nodes of the cluster.

```sh
export MINIO_API_REQUESTS_MAX=1600
export MINIO_ROOT_USER=your-access-key
export MINIO_ROOT_PASSWORD=your-secret-key
minio server http://server{1...8}/mnt/hdd{1...16}
```

or

```

##### Node (optional)

Optionally you can also collect per node metrics. This needs to be done on a per server instance.
The scrape configurations should use all the servers under `targets` so that graphing systems like
grafana can visualize them for all the nodes

```yaml
scrape_configs:
- job_name: minio-job
  metrics_path: /minio/v2/metrics/node
  scheme: http
  static_configs:

This topic provides commands to set up different configurations of hosts, nodes, and drives. The examples provided here can be used as a starting point for other configurations.

1. [Standalone Deployment](#standalone-deployment)
2. [Distributed Deployment](#distributed-deployment)

The drives should all be of approximately the same size.

## Get Started with MinIO in Erasure Code

### 1. Prerequisites

Install MinIO - [MinIO Quickstart Guide](https://min.io/docs/minio/linux/index.html#quickstart-for-linux)

**NOTE:**

subjectAltName = @alt_names

[alt_names]
IP.1 = 127.0.0.1
DNS.1 = localhost
```

Run `openssl` by specifying the configuration file and enter a passphrase if prompted:

```sh
openssl req -new -x509 -nodes -days 730 -keyout private.key -out public.crt -config openssl.conf
```

### 3.3 Use GnuTLS (for Windows) to Generate a Certificate

This section describes how to use GnuTLS on Windows to generate a certificate.
