### 3. Test your setup

implementation is available to the public in source code form.  A
"Major Component", in this context, means a major essential component
(kernel, window system, and so on) of the specific operating system
(if any) on which the executable work runs, or a compiler used to
produce the work, or an object code interpreter used to run it.

  The "Corresponding Source" for a work in object code form means all

```
ftp localhost -P 8021
Connected to localhost.
220 Welcome to MinIO FTP Server

331 User name ok, password required

        System.out.println("my-bucketname is created successfully");
      }

      boolean isVersioningEnabled =
          minioClient.isVersioningEnabled(
              IsVersioningEnabledArgs.builder().bucket("my-bucketname").build());
      if (isVersioningEnabled) {
        System.out.println("Bucket versioning is enabled");
      } else {
        System.out.println("Bucket versioning is disabled");

protection bits added automatically to provide the regular safety for these objects up to 50% of the number of drives.
This will allow normal write operations to take place on systems that exceed the write tolerance.

MinIO recommends using Linux operating system for production workloads.

## Why distributed MinIO?

MinIO in distributed mode can help you setup a highly-available storage system with a single object storage deployment. With distributed MinIO, you can optimally use storage devices, irrespective of their location in a network.

### Data protection

When configured, MinIO sends request and credential details for every API call to an external HTTP(S) endpoint and expects an allow/deny response. MinIO is thus able to delegate access management to an external system, and users are able to use a custom solution instead of S3 standard IAM policies.

* MinIO doesn't currently support PFX certificates.

### 3.1 Use `certgen` to Generate a Certificate

Download [`certgen`](https://github.com/minio/certgen/releases/latest) for your specific operating system and platform.

`certgen` is a simple *Go* tool to generate self-signed certificates, and provides SAN certificates with DNS and IP entries:

```sh
./certgen -host "10.10.0.3,10.10.0.4,10.10.0.5"
```
