authenticate prometheus scrape requests, override the default Prometheus config with the one generated using mc. To generate a Prometheus config for an alias, use [mc](https://min.io/docs/minio/linux/reference/minio-mc.html#quickstart) as follows `mc admin prometheus generate <alias> [METRIC-TYPE]`. The valid values for METRIC-TYPE are `cluster`, `node`, `bucket` and `resource` and if not mentioned, it defaults to `cluster`.

The command will generate the `scrape_configs` section of the prometheus.yml...

export MC_HOST_minio3=https://adminuser:******@****.***
```

- Add site replication configuration with:

```sh
mc admin replicate add minio1 minio2 minio3
```

- Once the above command returns success, you may query site replication configuration with:

```sh
mc admin replicate info minio1
```

** Note **

  use basic "readwrite" canned policy to test all the operations before you finalize on what level
  of restrictions are needed for a user.

- No "admin:*" operations are needed for FTP/SFTP access to the bucket(s) and object(s), so you may
  skip them for restrictions.

## Usage

Start MinIO in a distributed setup, with 'ftp/sftp' enabled.

```

To update the configuration, use `mc admin config get notify_amqp` command to get the current configuration for `notify_amqp`.

```sh
$ mc admin config get myminio/ notify_amqp
notify_amqp:1 delivery_mode="0" exchange_type="" no_wait="off" queue_dir="" queue_limit="0"  url="" auto_deleted="off" durable="off" exchange="" internal="off" mandatory="off" routing_key=""
```

- For deployments that installed the MinIO server binary by hand, use [`mc admin update`](https://min.io/docs/minio/linux/reference/minio-mc-admin/mc-admin-update.html)

```sh
mc admin update <minio alias, e.g., myminio>
```

Config `compress` settings take extensions and mime-types to be compressed.

```bash
~ mc admin config get myminio compression
compression extensions=".txt,.log,.csv,.json,.tar,.xml,.bin" mime_types="text/*,application/json,application/xml"
```

Default config includes most common highly compressible content extensions and mime-types.

```bash
~ mc admin config set myminio compression extensions=".pdf" mime_types="application/pdf"
```
