Typically servers need a held certificate plus a chain of intermediates. Servers only need the
private key for their own certificate. The chain served by a server doesn't need the root
certificate.

The trusted roots don't need to be the same for client and server when using client authentication.
Clients might rely on the platform certificates and servers might use a private

# How to monitor MinIO server with Grafana [![Slack](https://slack.min.io/slack?type=svg)](https://slack.min.io)

[Grafana](https://grafana.com/) allows you to query, visualize, alert on and understand your metrics no matter where they are stored. Create, explore, and share dashboards with your team and foster a data driven culture.

## Prerequisites

The scrape configurations should use all the servers under `targets` so that graphing systems like
grafana can visualize them for all the nodes

```yaml
scrape_configs:
- job_name: minio-job
  metrics_path: /minio/v2/metrics/node
  scheme: http
  static_configs:
  - targets: ['server1:9000','server2:9000','server3:9000','server4:9000']
```

```
class MyTest(
  private val server: MockWebServer
) {
  @Test
  fun test() {
    ...
  }
}
```

Multiple instances can be obtained by naming additional ones:

```
class MyTest(
  private val server: MockWebServer,
  @MockWebServerInstance("server2") private val server2: MockWebServer,
  @MockWebServerInstance("server3") private val server3: MockWebServer
) {
  @Test
  fun test() {

```

MinIO server also supports [NATS Streaming mode](http://nats.io/documentation/streaming/nats-streaming-intro/) that offers additional functionality like `At-least-once-delivery`, and `Publisher rate limiting`. To configure MinIO server to send notifications to NATS Streaming server, update the MinIO server configuration file as follows:

Certificates are no secrets and sent in plaintext as part of the TLS handshake.

- [Use `mc` with MinIO Server](https://min.io/docs/minio/linux/reference/minio-mc.html)
- [Use `aws-cli` with MinIO Server](https://min.io/docs/minio/linux/integrations/aws-cli-with-minio.html)
- [Use `minio-go` SDK with MinIO Server](https://min.io/docs/minio/linux/developers/go/minio-go.html)

A subroute on a client must match a subroute on the server. So routes cannot be used for dynamic routing, unlike HTTP.

Handlers should remain backwards compatible. If a breaking API change is required, a new handler ID should be created.

## Setup & Configuration

A **Manager** is used to manage all incoming and outgoing connections to a server.

On startup all remote servers must be specified. 

```sh
export MINIO_ROOT_USER=minio
export MINIO_ROOT_PASSWORD=minio13
minio server /data
```

#### Site

```
KEY:
site  label the server and its location

ARGS:
name     (string)    name for the site e.g. "cal-rack0"
region   (string)    name of the location of the server e.g. "us-west-1"
comment  (sentence)  optionally add a comment to this setting
```

or environment variables

- In ambient mode, the CNI plugin does not configure any networking, but is only responsible for synchronously pushing new pod events back up to an ambient watch server which runs as part of the Istio CNI node agent. The ambient server will find the pod netns and configure networking inside that pod via iptables. The ambient server will additionally watch enabled namespaces, and enroll already-started-but-newly-enrolled pods in a similar fashion.

## Privileges required

Similarly, if your TLS certificates do not have the IP SAN for the MinIO server host, the MinIO Console may fail to validate the connection to the server. Use the `MINIO_SERVER_URL` environment variable  and specify the proxy-accessible hostname of the MinIO server to allow the Console to use the MinIO server API using the TLS certificate.

For example: `export MINIO_SERVER_URL="https://minio.example.net"`
