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

### 3. Configuring Prometheus

#### 3.1 Authenticated Prometheus config

> If MinIO is configured to expose metrics without authentication, you don't need to use `mc` to generate prometheus config. You can skip reading further and move to 3.2 section.

```
export MINIO_KMS_AUTO_ENCRYPTION=on
```

### Verify auto-encryption

> Note that auto-encryption only affects requests without S3 encryption headers. So, if a S3 client sends
> e.g. SSE-C headers, MinIO will encrypt the object with the key sent by the client and won't reach out to
> the configured KMS.

### Certificate Directory

This will reduce the pileup of waiting requests when clients are not configured with timeouts. Default wait time is *10 seconds* if *MINIO_API_REQUESTS_MAX* is enabled. This may need to be tuned to your application needs.

## 1. Prerequisites

- Familiarity with [MinIO deployment process on Kubernetes](https://min.io/docs/minio/kubernetes/upstream/operations/installation.html).

- Kubernetes cluster with `kubectl` configured.

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

## Introduction

This chart bootstraps MinIO Cluster on [Kubernetes](http://kubernetes.io) using the [Helm](https://helm.sh) package manager.

## Prerequisites

- Helm cli with Kubernetes cluster configured.
- PV provisioner support in the underlying infrastructure. (We recommend using <https://github.com/minio/direct-csi>)
- Use Kubernetes version v1.19 and later for best experience.

## Configure MinIO Helm repo

```bash

Object locking requires locking to be enabled on a bucket at the time of bucket creation refer to `mc mb --with-lock`, object locking enables versioning on the bucket and cannot be disabled.

A default retention period and retention mode can be configured on a bucket to be applied to objects created in that bucket. Independent of retention, an object can also be under legal hold. This effectively disallows all deletes of an object under legal hold until the legal hold is removed by an API call.

- Temporary credentials are short-term, as the name implies. They can be configured to last for anywhere from a few minutes to several hours. After the credentials expire, MinIO no longer recognizes them or allows any kind of access from API requests made with them.

and a different team may maintain the control plane components (which are highly security sensitive).

The install is organized in 'environments' - each environment consists of a set of components
in different namespaces that are configured to work together. Regardless of 'environment',
workloads can talk with each other and obey the Istio configuration resources, but each environment
can use different Istio versions and different configuration defaults.

## Highlights

- Supports source and destination buckets to have the same name unlike AWS S3, addresses variety of usecases such as *Splunk*, *Veeam* site to site DR.
