Each node is responsible of healing its local drives; Each drive will have multiple heal workers which is the quarter of the number of CPU cores of the node or the quarter of the configured nr_requests of the drive (https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/block/queue-sysfs.txt). It is also possible to provide a custom number of workers by using this command: `mc admin config set alias/ heal drive_workers=100` .


```
~ mc admin config set alias/ heal
KEY:

| `minio_cluster_replication_current_active_workers`         | Total number of active replication workers                                                               |
| `minio_cluster_replication_average_active_workers`         | Average number of active replication workers                                                             |

...

| `minio_cluster_usage_objects_versions_count`             | `gauge` | Total cluster object versions (including delete markers) count |         |
| `minio_cluster_usage_objects_delete_markers_count`       | `gauge` | Total cluster delete markers count                             |         |

        }
    ]
}
```

### 3.3 Automatic removal of delete markers with no other versions

When an object has only one version as a delete marker, the latter can be automatically removed after a certain number of days using the following configuration:

```
{
    "Rules": [
        {
            "ID": "Removing all delete markers",
            "Expiration": {
                "DeleteMarker": true

user  nginx;
worker_processes  auto;

error_log  /var/log/nginx/error.log warn;
pid        /var/run/nginx.pid;

events {
    worker_connections  4096;
}

http {
    include       /etc/nginx/mime.types;
    default_type  application/octet-stream;

    log_format  main  '$remote_addr - $remote_user [$time_local] "$request" '
                      '$status $body_bytes_sent "$http_referer" '

user  nginx;
worker_processes  auto;

error_log  /var/log/nginx/error.log warn;
pid        /var/run/nginx.pid;


events {
    worker_connections  1024;
}


http {
    include       /etc/nginx/mime.types;
    default_type  application/octet-stream;

    log_format  main  '$remote_addr - $remote_user [$time_local] "$request" '
                      '$status $body_bytes_sent "$http_referer" '

> NOTE: Server side replication is supported for idempotent versions on directory objects.

### Idempotent versions on delete markers

user  nginx;
worker_processes  auto;

error_log  /var/log/nginx/error.log warn;
pid        /var/run/nginx.pid;

events {
    worker_connections  4096;
}

http {
    include       /etc/nginx/mime.types;
    default_type  application/octet-stream;

    log_format  main  '$remote_addr - $remote_user [$time_local] "$request" '
                      '$status $body_bytes_sent "$http_referer" '

## NOTE

- Empty delete markers (such as for objects with no other successor versions) do not transition to the new pool to avoid creating empty metadata on the other pool(s). If you believe transitioning empty delete markers is required, open a GitHub issue.
