Transition tiers can be added to MinIO using `mc admin tier add` command to associate a `gcs`, `s3` or `azure` bucket or prefix path on a bucket to the tier name.
Lifecycle transition rules can be applied to buckets (both versioned and un-versioned) by specifying the tier name defined above as the transition storage class for the lifecycle rule.

## Implementation

		Transport: globalRemoteTargetTransport,
		Region:    conf.Region,
	}
	client, err := minio.New(u.Host, opts)
	if err != nil {
		return nil, err
	}
	client.SetAppInfo(fmt.Sprintf("s3-tier-%s", tier), ReleaseTag)

	core := &minio.Core{Client: client}
	return &warmBackendS3{
		client:       client,
		core:         core,
		Bucket:       conf.Bucket,

			}
			t.activeTasks.Add(-1)
		}
	}
}

	if _, ok := t.lastDayStats[tier]; !ok {
		t.lastDayStats[tier] = &lastDayTierStats{}

}

> To create a transition tier for transitioning objects to a prefix `testprefix` in `azurebucket` on Azure blob using `mc`:

```

./mc mb --ignore-existing sitea/bucket
./mc mb --ignore-existing siteb/bucket

sleep 10s

## Add warm tier
./mc ilm tier add minio sitea WARM-TIER --endpoint http://localhost:9004 --access-key minioadmin --secret-key minioadmin --bucket bucket

## Add ILM rules
./mc ilm add sitea/bucket --transition-days 0 --transition-tier WARM-TIER
./mc ilm rule list sitea/bucket

./mc cp README.md sitea/bucket/README.md

## create a warm tier instance
(minio server /tmp/xltier/{1...4}/disk{0...1} --address :9002 2>&1 >/dev/null) &
