Minio server supports healthcheck and prometheus related
unauthenticated endpoints. This document summarizes this
information in a single place and add links for more detailed
documentation if needed.
- Add head method for healthcheck endpoint. Some platforms/users
may use the HTTP Head method to check for health status.
- Add liveness and readiness probe examples in Kubernetes yaml
example docs. Note that readiness probe not added to StatefulSet
example due to https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/27114
This PR adds readiness and liveness endpoints to probe Minio server
instance health. Endpoints can only be accessed without authentication
and the paths are /minio/health/live and /minio/health/ready for
liveness and readiness respectively.
The new healthcheck liveness endpoint is used for Docker healthcheck
now.
