## Introduction

The operator uses the [IstioOperator API](https://github.com/istio/api/blob/master/operator/v1alpha1/operator.proto), which has
three main components:

- [MeshConfig](https://github.com/istio/api/blob/master/mesh/v1alpha1/config.proto) for runtime config consumed directly by Istio
control plane components.

- Liveness probe available at `/minio/health/live`
- Cluster probe available at `/minio/health/cluster`

Read more on how to use these endpoints in [MinIO healthcheck guide](https://github.com/minio/minio/blob/master/docs/metrics/healthcheck/README.md).

## Replica Modification sync

### Certificate Directory

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

```sh
curl -sSL --tlsv1.2 \
     -O 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/minio/kes/master/root.key' \
     -O 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/minio/kes/master/root.cert'
```

### 2. Set the MinIO-KES configuration

```sh
export MINIO_KMS_KES_ENDPOINT=https://play.min.io:7373
export MINIO_KMS_KES_KEY_FILE=root.key

### List of metrics reported Cluster and Bucket level

[The list of metrics reported can be here](https://github.com/minio/minio/blob/master/docs/metrics/prometheus/list.md)

### Configure Alerts for Prometheus

![quota](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/minio/minio/master/docs/bucket/quota/bucketquota.png)

Buckets can be configured to have `Hard` quota - it disallows writes to the bucket after configured quota limit is reached.

For testing purposes, here is [how to create self-signed certificates](https://github.com/minio/minio/tree/master/docs/tls#3-generate-self-signed-certificates).

## 2. Create Kubernetes secret

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