- Acquire TLS certificates, either from a CA or [create self-signed certificates](https://min.io/docs/minio/kubernetes/upstream/operations/network-encryption.html).

MINIO_IDENTITY_OPENID_COMMENT               (sentence)  optionally add a comment to this setting
```

### Access Control Configuration Variables

Either `MINIO_IDENTITY_OPENID_ROLE_POLICY` (recommended) or `MINIO_IDENTITY_OPENID_CLAIM_NAME` must be specified but not both. See the section Access Control Policies to understand the differences between the two.

Refer [Prometheus documentation](https://prometheus.io/docs/introduction/first_steps/) for more details.

### 2. Configure authentication type for Prometheus metrics

MinIO supports two authentication modes for Prometheus either `jwt` or `public`, by default MinIO runs in `jwt` mode. To allow public access without authentication for prometheus metrics set environment as follows.

```
export MINIO_PROMETHEUS_AUTH_TYPE="public"
minio server ~/test
```

## Storage usage

The selection of varying data and parity drives has a direct impact on the drive space usage. With storage class, you can optimize for high
redundancy or better drive space utilization.

To get an idea of how various combinations of data and parity drives affect the storage usage, let’s take an example of a 100 MiB file stored

in a fashion requiring copyright permission, other than the making of an
exact copy.  The resulting work is called a "modified version" of the
earlier work or a work "based on" the earlier work.

  A "covered work" means either the unmodified Program or a work based
on the Program.

  To "propagate" a work means to do anything with it that, without
permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for

### Server-Side Encryption - Preliminaries

#### Secret Keys

1. Once the security report is received one member of the security team tries to verify and reproduce
   the issue and determines the impact it has.
2. A member of the security team will respond and either confirm or reject the security report.
   If the report is rejected the response explains why.
3. Code is audited to find any potential similar problems.
4. Fixes are prepared for the latest release.

The MinIO TLS STS API can be configured via MinIO's standard configuration API (i.e. using `mc admin config set/get`). Further, it can be configured via the following environment variables:

points to the public IP address where each cluster might be accessible, this is unique for each cluster.

NOTE: `mybucket` only exists on one cluster either `cluster1` or `cluster2` this is random and
is decided by how `domain.com` gets resolved, if there is a round-robin DNS on `domain.com` then
it is randomized which cluster might provision the bucket.

### 3. Test your setup

# Decommissioning

Decommissiong is a mechanism in MinIO to drain older pools (usually with old hardware) and migrate the content from such pools to a newer pools (usually better hardware). Decommissioning spreads the data across all pools - for example, if you decommission `pool1`, all the data from `pool1` spreads across `pool2` and `pool3`.
