Minio Quickstart Guide
Minio is an object storage server released under Apache License v2.0. It is compatible with Amazon S3 cloud storage service. It is best suited for storing unstructured data such as photos, videos, log files, backups and container / VM images. Size of an object can range from a few KBs to a maximum of 5TB.
Minio server is light enough to be bundled with the application stack, similar to NodeJS, Redis and MySQL.
Docker Container
Stable
docker pull minio/minio
docker run -p 9000:9000 minio/minio server /data
Edge
docker pull minio/minio:edge
docker run -p 9000:9000 minio/minio:edge server /data
Please visit Minio Docker quickstart guide for more here

Allow port access for Firewalls
By default Minio uses the port 9000 to listen for incoming connections. If your platform blocks the port by default, you may need to enable access to the port.
iptables
For hosts with iptables enabled (RHEL, CentOS, etc), you can use iptables
command to enable all traffic coming to specific ports. Use below command to allow
access to port 9000
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 9000 -j ACCEPT
service iptables restart
Below command enables all incoming traffic to ports ranging from 9000 to 9010.
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 9000:9010 -j ACCEPT
service iptables restart
ufw
For hosts with ufw enabled (Debian based distros), you can use ufw
command to allow traffic to specific ports. Use below command to allow access to port 9000
ufw allow 9000
Below command enables all incoming traffic to ports ranging from 9000 to 9010.
ufw allow 9000:9010/tcp
firewall-cmd
For hosts with firewall-cmd enabled (CentOS), you can use firewall-cmd
command to allow traffic to specific ports. Use below commands to allow access to port 9000
firewall-cmd --get-active-zones
This command gets the active zone(s). Now, apply port rules to the relevant zones returned above. For example if the zone is public
, use
firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-port=9000/tcp --permanent
Note that permanent
makes sure the rules are persistent across firewall start, restart or reload. Finally reload the firewall for changes to take effect.
firewall-cmd --reload
Test using Minio Browser
Minio Server comes with an embedded web based object browser. Point your web browser to http://127.0.0.1:9000 ensure your server has started successfully.
Test using Minio Client mc
mc
provides a modern alternative to UNIX commands like ls, cat, cp, mirror, diff etc. It supports filesystems and Amazon S3 compatible cloud storage services. Follow the Minio Client Quickstart Guide for further instructions.
Pre-existing data
When deployed on a single drive, Minio server lets clients access any pre-existing data in the data directory. For example, if Minio is started with the command minio server /mnt/data
, any pre-existing data in the /mnt/data
directory would be accessible to the clients.
The above statement is also valid for all gateway backends.
