## 2. Create Kubernetes secret

[Kubernetes secrets](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/configuration/secret) are intended to hold sensitive information.

### MinIO Custom Access and Secret Keys using Docker secrets

To override MinIO's auto-generated keys, you may pass secret and access keys explicitly by creating access and secret keys as [Docker secrets](https://docs.docker.com/engine/swarm/secrets/). MinIO server also allows regular strings as access and secret keys.

```
echo "AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLE" | docker secret create access_key -

      {{- end }}
      {{- end }}
      volumes:
        - name: minio-user
          secret:
            secretName: {{ template "minio.secretName" . }}
        {{- if .Values.extraSecret }}
        - name: extra-secret
          secret:
            secretName: {{ .Values.extraSecret }}
        {{- end }}
        {{- include "minio.tlsKeysVolume" . | indent 8 }}

  set -e ; # fail if we can't read the keys.
  ACCESS=$(cat /config/rootUser) ; SECRET=$(cat /config/rootPassword) ;
  set +e ; # The connections to minio are allowed to fail.
  echo "Connecting to MinIO server: $SCHEME://$MINIO_ENDPOINT:$MINIO_PORT" ;
  MC_COMMAND="${MC} alias set myminio $SCHEME://$MINIO_ENDPOINT:$MINIO_PORT $ACCESS $SECRET" ;
  $MC_COMMAND ;
  STATUS=$? ;
  until [ $STATUS = 0 ]
  do

First, create the secret: ```bash kubectl create secret generic my-minio-secret --from-literal=rootUser=foobarbaz --from-literal=rootPassword=foobarbazqux ``` Then install the chart, specifying that you want to use an existing secret: ```bash helm install --set existingSecret=my-minio-secret minio/minio...
