### Environment variables

#### MINIO_ETCD_ENDPOINTS

This is comma separated list of etcd servers that you want to use as the MinIO federation back-end. This should
be same across the federated deployment, i.e. all the MinIO instances within a federated deployment should use same
etcd back-end.

claim_name    (string)    JWT canned policy claim name, defaults to "policy"
claim_prefix  (string)    JWT claim namespace prefix e.g. "customer1/"
scopes        (csv)       Comma separated list of OpenID scopes for server, defaults to advertised scopes from discovery document e.g. "email,admin"
comment       (sentence)  optionally add a comment to this setting
```

and ENV based options

```

Assuming that you already have Apache Kafka configured and running.

```
mc admin config set myminio/ audit_kafka
KEY:

ARGS:
brokers*         (csv)       comma separated list of Kafka broker addresses
topic            (string)    Kafka topic used for bucket notifications
sasl_username    (string)    username for SASL/PLAIN or SASL/SCRAM authentication

### 3. Setup MinIO with etcd

MinIO server expects environment variable for etcd as `MINIO_ETCD_ENDPOINTS`, this environment variable takes many comma separated entries.

```
export MINIO_ETCD_ENDPOINTS=http://localhost:2379
minio server /data
```
