## Creating a hotfix branch

Customers in MinIO are allowed LTS on any release they choose to standardize. Production setups seldom change and require maintenance. Hotfix branches are such maintenance branches that allow customers to operate a production cluster without drastic changes to their deployment.

### Custom Algorithms (SFTP)

Custom algorithms can be specified via command line parameters.
Algorithms are comma separated. 

			// if we have less drives than concurrency then choose
			// only the concurrency to be number of drives to start
			// with - since default '32' might be big and may not
			// complete in total time of 10s.
			if globalEndpoints.NEndpoints() < concurrency {
				concurrency = globalEndpoints.NEndpoints()
			}

			// Check if we have local disks per pool less than
			// the concurrency make sure we choose only the "start"

OSMM+vkKUTCvQs9YL/CVMIMt43HFhkUpqJxTmGl6rYw=
```

Now, you can set `MINIO_KMS_SECRET_KEY` like this:

```sh
export MINIO_KMS_SECRET_KEY=my-minio-key:OSMM+vkKUTCvQs9YL/CVMIMt43HFhkUpqJxTmGl6rYw=
```

> You can choose an arbitrary name for the key - instead of `my-minio-key`.
> Please note that losing the `MINIO_KMS_SECRET_KEY` will cause data loss
> since you will not be able to decrypt the IAM/configuration data anymore.
