## 2. Create Kubernetes secret

[Kubernetes secrets](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/configuration/secret) are intended to hold sensitive information.
We'll use secrets to hold the TLS certificate and key. To create a secret, update the paths to `private.key` and `public.crt`
below.

Then type

```sh

```bash
helm install --name my-release -f values.yaml minio/minio
```

### Persistence

This chart provisions a PersistentVolumeClaim and mounts corresponding persistent volume to default location `/export`. You'll need physical storage available in the Kubernetes cluster for this to work. If you'd rather use `emptyDir`, disable PersistentVolumeClaim by:

```bash
helm install --set persistence.enabled=false minio/minio
```

it is randomized which cluster might provision the bucket.

### 3. Test your setup

To test this setup, access the MinIO server via browser or [`mc`](https://min.io/docs/minio/linux/reference/minio-mc.html#quickstart). You’ll see the uploaded files are accessible from the all the MinIO endpoints.

### 2. Run distributed MinIO

To start a distributed MinIO instance, you just need to pass drive locations as parameters to the minio server command. Then, you’ll need to run the same command on all the participating nodes.
