MinIO NAS Gateway

MinIO Gateway adds Amazon S3 compatibility to NAS storage. You may run multiple minio instances on the same shared NAS volume as a distributed object gateway.

Run MinIO Gateway for NAS Storage

Using Docker

Please ensure to replace /shared/nasvol with actual mount path.

docker run -p 9000:9000 --name nas-s3 \
 -e "MINIO_ACCESS_KEY=minio" \
 -e "MINIO_SECRET_KEY=minio123" \
 -v /shared/nasvol:/container/vol \
 minio/minio gateway nas /container/vol

Using Binary

export MINIO_ACCESS_KEY=minio
export MINIO_SECRET_KEY=minio123
minio gateway nas /shared/nasvol

Test using MinIO Browser

MinIO Gateway comes with an embedded web based object browser. Point your web browser to http://127.0.0.1:9000 to ensure that your server has started successfully.

Test using MinIO Client `mc`

mc provides a modern alternative to UNIX commands such as ls, cat, cp, mirror, diff etc. It supports filesystems and Amazon S3 compatible cloud storage services.

Configure `mc`

mc alias set mynas http://gateway-ip:9000 access_key secret_key

List buckets on nas

mc ls mynas
[2017-02-22 01:50:43 PST]     0B ferenginar/
[2017-02-26 21:43:51 PST]     0B my-bucket/
[2017-02-26 22:10:11 PST]     0B test-bucket1/

Breaking changes

There will be a breaking change after the release version 'RELEASE.2020-06-22T03-12-50Z'.

The file-based config settings are deprecated in NAS

The support for admin config APIs will be removed. This will include getters and setters like mc admin config get and mc admin config and any other mc admin config options. The reason for this change is to avoid un-necessary reloads of the config from the disk. And to comply with the Environment variable based settings like other gateways.

Migration guide

The users who have been using the older config approach should migrate to ENV settings by setting environment variables accordingly.

For example,

Consider the following webhook target config.

notify_webhook:1 endpoint=http://localhost:8080/ auth_token= queue_limit=0 queue_dir=/tmp/webhk client_cert= client_key=

The corresponding environment variable setting can be

export MINIO_NOTIFY_WEBHOOK_ENABLE_1=on
export MINIO_NOTIFY_WEBHOOK_ENDPOINT_1=http://localhost:8080/
export MINIO_NOTIFY_WEBHOOK_QUEUE_DIR_1=/tmp/webhk

NOTE: Please check the docs for the corresponding ENV setting. Alternatively, We can obtain other ENVs in the form mc admin config set alias/ <sub-sys> --env
