```
minio server dir{1...64}
```

Distributed erasure coded configuration with 64 sets with 16 drives each.

```
minio server http://host{1...16}/export{1...64}
```

## Architecture

Expansion of ellipses and choice of erasure sets based on this expansion is an automated process in MinIO. Here are some of the details of our underlying erasure coding behavior.

that can be configured in a MinIO setup, such as '--address', '--console-address' and command line arguments for the MinIO server.

Historically everything to MinIO was provided via command arguments for the hostnames and the drives via an ellipses syntax such as `minio server http://host{1...4}/disk{1...4}` this requirement added an additional burden to have sequential hostnames for us to make sure that we can provide horizontal distribution, however we have come across situations where sometimes...

package main

import (
	"bufio"
	"encoding/json"
	"errors"
	"flag"
	"fmt"
	"log"
	"net/url"
	"os"
	"path/filepath"
	"strings"
	"syscall"

	"github.com/minio/pkg/v3/ellipses"
)

type xl struct {
	This string     `json:"this"`
	Sets [][]string `json:"sets"`
}

type format struct {
	ID string `json:"id"`
	XL xl     `json:"xl"`
}

> **NOTE:** `{1...n}` shown have 3 dots! Using only 2 dots `{1..n}` will be interpreted by your shell and won't be passed to MinIO server, affecting the erasure coding order, which would impact performance and high availability. **Always use ellipses syntax `{1...n}` (3 dots!) for optimal erasure-code distribution**

### Expanding existing distributed setup

2) Never change punctuation inside inline code, code blocks, URLs, or file paths.

### Ellipsis

1) Keep ellipsis style consistent within each document, prefer `...` over  `……`.
2) Never change ellipsis in code, URLs, or CLI examples.

### Preferred translations / glossary

Use the following preferred translations when they apply in documentation prose:

### Ellipsis

1) Keep ellipsis style consistent within each document, prefer `...` over `……`.
2) Never change ellipsis in code, URLs, or CLI examples.

### Preferred translations / glossary

### Quotes

1) Prefer Ukrainian guillemets «…» for quoted terms in prose, matching existing Ukrainian docs.
2) Never change quotes inside inline code, code blocks, URLs, or file paths.

### Ellipsis

1) Keep ellipsis style consistent with existing Ukrainian docs.
2) Never change `...` in code, URLs, or CLI examples.

### Preferred translations / glossary

### Quotes

1) Prefer Japanese corner brackets 「」 in normal prose when quoting a term.
2) Do not change quotes inside inline code, code blocks, URLs, or file paths.

### Ellipsis

1) Keep ellipsis style consistent with existing Japanese docs (commonly `...`).
2) Never change `...` in code, URLs, or CLI examples.

### Preferred translations / glossary

2) Do not add trailing punctuation to headings.

### Quotes

1) Keep quote style consistent with the existing Korean docs.
2) Never change quotes inside inline code, code blocks, URLs, or file paths.

### Ellipsis

1) Keep ellipsis style consistent with existing Korean docs (often `...`).
2) Never change `...` in code, URLs, or CLI examples.

### Preferred translations / glossary

        «««
        «Hello world»
        «Hello Universe»
        «He said: 'Hello'»
        «The module is `__main__`»
        »»»

### Ellipsis

1) Make sure there is a space between an ellipsis and a word following or preceding the ellipsis.

Examples:

    Source (English):

        «««
        ...as we intended.
        ...this would work:
        ...etc.
        others...
