Ref #3229
After review with @abperiasamy we decided to remove all the unnecessary options
- MINIO_BROWSER (Implemented as a security feature but now deemed obsolete
since even if blocking access to MINIO_BROWSER, s3 API port is open)
- MINIO_CACHE_EXPIRY (Defaults to 72h)
- MINIO_MAXCONN (No one used this option and we don't test this)
- MINIO_ENABLE_FSMETA (Enable FSMETA all the time)
Remove --ignore-disks option - this option was implemented when XL layer
would initialize the backend disks and heal them automatically to disallow
XL accidentally using the root partition itself this option was introduced.
This behavior has been changed XL no longer automatically initializes
`format.json` a HEAL is controlled activity, so ignore-disks is not
useful anymore. This change also addresses the problems of our documentation
going forward and keeps things simple. This patch brings in reduction of
options and defaulting them to a valid known inputs. This patch also
serves as a guideline of limiting many ways to do the same thing.
rpcClient should attempt a reconnect if the call fails
with 'rpc.ErrShutdown' this is needed since at times when
the servers are taken down and brought back up.
The hijacked connection from net.Dial is usually closed.
So upon first attempt rpcClient might falsely indicate that
disk to be down, to avoid this state make another dial attempt
to really fail.
Fixes#3206Fixes#3205
Serves as a starting point to run a Minio cluster using Docker. The
file can be used as configuration for the docker-compose tool to start
4 Minio servers in distributed mode.
* Add a docker-compose.yml file to run 4 minio server instances in
distributed mode
* Update Docker.md with command to use the file
* images: Move screenshot for docs inside docs/screenshots directory. Use optimized images.
* images: This fix optimizes the images for the Erasure Code Quick Start Guide
* doc:README.md/Updated to sync with docs.minio.io
* doc:README.me/Modified the minio server output terminal to reflect new release changes.
* docs:README.md/Modified and changed location of other markdown files.
This change is needed to make reading from objects future proof
in-terms of handling online disks. Our current counter is not
based on affirmative knowledge and relies on arithmetic sequence
which can lead to bugs.
Using modTime simplifies the understanding of `xl.json` and future
tooling / debugging of the format.
