# Introduction

This document outlines how to make hotfix binaries and containers for MinIO?. The main focus in this article is about how to backport patches to a specific branch and finally building binaries/containers.

## Pre-pre requisite

- A working knowledge of MinIO codebase and its various components.
- A working knowledge of AWS S3 API behaviors and corner cases.

## Pre-requisite for backporting any fixes

    if err == nil {
        fmt.Println("Got response with field", resp["result"])
    }
```

The wrapper will handle all serialization and de-seralization of the request and response,
and furthermore provides reuse of the structs used for the request and response.

Note that Responses sent for serialization are automatically reused for similar requests.

### Certificate Directory

| IMPORTANT |
| -------------------------- |

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

##### Cluster

```yaml
scrape_configs:
- job_name: minio-job

### 1. Fetch the root identity

As the initial step, fetch the private key and certificate of the root identity:

```sh

```

### Redirection from OpenID Provider
