## Liveness probe

This probe always responds with '200 OK'. Only fails if 'etcd' is configured and unreachable. When liveness probe fails, Kubernetes like platforms restart the container.

```
livenessProbe:
  httpGet:
    path: /minio/health/live
    port: 9000
    scheme: HTTP
  initialDelaySeconds: 120

> In a cloud-native environment, scalability is not a function of the application but the orchestration platform.

In a typical modern infrastructure deployment, application, database, key-store, etc. already live in containers and are managed by orchestration platforms. MinIO brings robust, scalable, AWS S3 compatible object storage to the lot.

Further, the temp. S3 credentials will never out-live the client certificate. For example, if the `MINIO_IDENTITY_TLS_STS_EXPIRY` is 7 days but the certificate itself is only valid for the next 3 days, then MinIO will return S3 credentials that are valid for 3 days only.

## Caveat

MinIO server has two healthcheck related un-authenticated endpoints, a liveness probe to indicate if server is responding, cluster probe to check if server can be taken down for maintenance.

- Liveness probe available at `/minio/health/live`
- Cluster probe available at `/minio/health/cluster`

Read more on how to use these endpoints in [MinIO healthcheck guide](https://github.com/minio/minio/blob/master/docs/metrics/healthcheck/README.md).

## Advanced options

### Change default FTP port

Default port '8021' can be changed via

```
--ftp="address=:3021"
```

### Change FTP passive port range

By default FTP requests OS to give a free port automatically, however you may want to restrict
this to specific ports in certain restricted environments via

```
--ftp="passive-port-range=30000-40000"
```

### Change default SFTP port
