Install Minio

To deploy Minio on Linux, you need to have some knowledge and skills of the Linux operating system, and here are some Linux infrastructures and popular Linux distributions that will be used.

  • Ubuntu 20.04 (LTS) Focal, Ubuntu Impish 21.10, Ubuntu 22.04 (LTS) Jammy

  • Docker 20.10 or higher.

  • IPv4/IPv6

  • Systemd

  • IP tables

  • Firewalld

It only supports 64-bit OS.

This document assumes that the Linux OS is already deployed and administrators of Minio have been granted root permission to Linux.

Create a Minio file storage path

mkdir /opt/mino/data -p

Create Minio certificate key file path

mkdir /opt/mino/certs -p

Create a / opt/minio/docker-compose.yml file and save the following to the file

version: "3.9" services:   minio:     image: minio/minio:latest     command: server /data  --address ":8892" --console-address ":8890" --certs-dir "/tmp/certs"     container_name: minio     ports:       - "8892:8892"       - "8890:8890"     environment:       - MINIO_ROOT_USER= [Initial administrator account]       - MINIO_ROOT_PASSWORD= [Initial administrator password]     volumes:       - /opt/minio/data:/data       - /opt/minio/certs:/tmp/certs     healthcheck:       test: ["CMD", "curl", "-f", "https://127.0.0.1:8890/minio/health/live"]       interval: 30s       timeout: 20s       retries: 3     restart: always

 

Note：

  • 8890 is the login port of the management background. The specific access address is https://webdomain:8890.

  • 8892 is the file access port, and the specific access address is https://webdomain:8892/bucket/file

  • MINIO_ROOT_USER and MINIO_ROOT_PASSWORD are the initial administrator account / password. Use this account to log in to the minio management backend after successful installation.

Store the server certificate file under the / opt/minio/certs path

Please take the steps listed below.

  1. Purchase a Domain (for example, cloudfon.net) from the domain provider (for example, GoDaddy.) for your CX. 

  2. Add an A record in the Domain DNS zone, and resolve the Domain to your CX IP, for example: point the cx.cloudfon.net to CX server IP.

  3. Purchase a certificate from the trust certificate provider for your domain, for example, Digicert, Thawte, GeoTrust; If you want to make it easier to manage multi-tenants, you'd better apply for a wildcard certificate.

  4. Generate the CSR file and private key file according to the certificate provider’s guide, and keep the files. Usually, you will have two files: the certificate and the private key. Note, please choose the certificates for Nginx.

  5. Rename the private key file as private.key. 

  6. Rename the public crt file as public.crt. 

Execute the docker installation Minio instruction

Configure Minio

(1) Login to the Minio server via https://webdomain:8890

(2) Create an access key and copy the Access Key and Secret Key

(3) Create buckets

(4) Set access permission to Public

Configure Minio integration

Log in to the system administrator portal, click "Advance"-> “Connector Hub Setting"-> "File Server"  and then select the type with “Minio” to enter the Minio settings page.

Enter the previously created bucket, Access Key, Secret Key, and external access address in the corresponding configuration:

Note:

  • The bucket is configured as the bucket name created in Minio

  • The endpoint is configured as a Minio file access address, https://webdomain:8892

  • Access Key and Secret Key are the keys created in the Minio management background
