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.
This change disables the non-constant-time implementations of P-384 and P-521.
As a consequence a client using just these curves cannot connect to the server.
This should be no real issues because (all) clients at least support P-256.
Further this change also rejects ECDSA private keys of P-384 and P-521.
While non-constant-time implementations for the ECDHE exchange don't expose an
obvious vulnerability, using P-384 or P-521 keys for the ECDSA signature may allow
pratical timing attacks.
Fixes#5844
This PR adds disk based edge caching support for minio server.
Cache settings can be configured in config.json to take list of disk drives,
cache expiry in days and file patterns to exclude from cache or via environment
variables MINIO_CACHE_DRIVES, MINIO_CACHE_EXCLUDE and MINIO_CACHE_EXPIRY
Design assumes that Atime support is enabled and the list of cache drives is
fixed.
- Objects are cached on both GET and PUT/POST operations.
- Expiry is used as hint to evict older entries from cache, or if 80% of cache
capacity is filled.
- When object storage backend is down, GET, LIST and HEAD operations fetch
object seamlessly from cache.
Current Limitations
- Bucket policies are not cached, so anonymous operations are not supported in
offline mode.
- Objects are distributed using deterministic hashing among list of cache
drives specified.If one or more drives go offline, or cache drive
configuration is altered - performance could degrade to linear lookup.
Fixes#4026
- removes backend/{fs,xl} files.
- removes FreeBSD doc since we already have FreeNAS doc.
- removes sets/ directory which is redundant with
large-bucket directory.
- removes browser/ directory which attempts
to explain about browser RPC calls, since
its an internal API we do not need to document it.
- 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.

- Remove hostPort from Kubernetes deployment example docs. Initially
hostPort was added to ensure Minio pods are allocated to separate
machines, but as per latest Kubernetes documents this is not
recommended approach (ref: https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/
configuration/overview/#services). To define pod allocations,
Affinity and Anti-Affinity concepts are the recommended approach.
(ref: https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/configuration/assign-pod-node)
- Add Minio release tag to Docker-Compose example file.
This change fixes the command for generating ECDSA private keys.
The current command produces private key files which cannot be parsed
by the server.
Fixes#5614
This PR implements an object layer which
combines input erasure sets of XL layers
into a unified namespace.
This object layer extends the existing
erasure coded implementation, it is assumed
in this design that providing > 16 disks is
a static configuration as well i.e if you started
the setup with 32 disks with 4 sets 8 disks per
pack then you would need to provide 4 sets always.
Some design details and restrictions:
- Objects are distributed using consistent ordering
to a unique erasure coded layer.
- Each pack has its own dsync so locks are synchronized
properly at pack (erasure layer).
- Each pack still has a maximum of 16 disks
requirement, you can start with multiple
such sets statically.
- Static sets set of disks and cannot be
changed, there is no elastic expansion allowed.
- Static sets set of disks and cannot be
changed, there is no elastic removal allowed.
- ListObjects() across sets can be noticeably
slower since List happens on all servers,
and is merged at this sets layer.

in-memory caching cannot be cleanly implemented
without the access to GC which Go doesn't naturally
provide. At times we have seen that object caching
is more of an hindrance rather than a boon for
our use cases.
Removing it completely from our implementation
related to #5160 and #5182
This is a generic minimum value. The current reason is to support
Azure blob storage accounts name whose length is less than 5. 3 is the
minimum length for Azure.
This change adds documentation about PKCS-8 vs PKCS-1 pitfalls. It
also provides a command to convert encrypted PKCS-8 RSA keys to
encrypted PKCS-1 RSA keys.
Fixes#5453
If STANDARD storage class is set before starting up Minio server,
but x-amz-storage-class metadata field is not set in a PutObject
request, Minio server defaults to N/2 data and N/2 parity disks.
This PR changes the behaviour to use data and parity disks set in
STANDARD storage class, even if x-amz-storage-class metadata
field is not present in PutObject requests.
Manta has the ability to allow users to authenticate with a
username other than the main account. We want to expose
this functionality to minio manta gateway.
This change adds support for password-protected private keys.
If the private key is encrypted the server tries to decrypt
the key with the password provided by the env variable
MINIO_CERT_PASSWD.
Fixes#5302
- Add storage class metadata validation for request header
- Change storage class header values to be consistent with AWS S3
- Refactor internal method to take only the reqd argument
This adds configurable data and parity options on a per object
basis. To use variable parity
- Users can set environment variables to cofigure variable
parity
- Then add header x-amz-storage-class to putobject requests
with relevant storage class values
Fixes#4997
Manta is an Object Storage by [Joyent](https://www.joyent.com/)
This PR adds initial support for Manta. It is intended as non-production
ready so that feedback can be obtained.
Ever since commit 5db1e9f3dd the
default region as been '', instead of 'us-east-1'. Update
documentation to reflect this, in particular, documentation about
notifications.
With https://github.com/minio/minio/pull/4869 maximum size of a single
multipart upload part in not restricted to 100MB. 1TB maximum object
size limitation is no longer applicable too.
This implementation is similar to AMQP notifications:
* Notifications are published on a single topic as a JSON feed
* Topic is configurable, as is the QoS. Uses the paho.mqtt.golang
library for the mqtt connection, and supports connections over tcp
and websockets, with optional secure tls support.
* Additionally the minio server configuration has been bumped up
so mqtt configuration can be added.
* Configuration migration code is added with tests.
MQTT is an ISO standard M2M/IoT messaging protocol and was
originally designed for applications for limited bandwidth
networks. Today it's use is growing in the IoT space.
This patch also reverts previous changes which were
merged for migration to the newer disk format. We will
be bringing these changes in subsequent releases. But
we wish to add protection in this release such that
future release migrations are protected.
Revert "fs: Migration should handle bucketConfigs as regular objects. (#4482)"
This reverts commit 976870a391.
Revert "fs: Migrate object metadata to objects directory. (#4195)"
This reverts commit 76f4f20609.
This PR also does backend format change to 1.0.1
from 1.0.0. Backward compatible changes are still
kept to read the 'md5Sum' key. But all new objects
will be stored with the same details under 'etag'.
Fixes#4312
public.crt needs sometimes to have a chain certificate, this PR
explains how to construct public.crt when certificate are issued
by a certificate authority.
This change adds `access` format support for notifications to a
Elasticsearch server, and it refactors `namespace` format support.
In the case of `access` format, for each event in Minio, a JSON
document is inserted into Elasticsearch with its timestamp set to the
event's timestamp, and with the ID generated automatically by
elasticsearch. No events are modified or deleted in this mode.
In the case of `namespace` format, for each event in Minio, a JSON
document is keyed together by the bucket and object name is updated in
Elasticsearch. In the case of an object being created or over-written
in Minio, a new document or an existing document is inserted into the
Elasticsearch index. If an object is deleted in Minio, the
corresponding document is deleted from the Elasticsearch index.
Additionally, this change upgrades Elasticsearch support to the 5.x
series. This is a breaking change, and users of previous elasticsearch
versions should upgrade.
Also updates documentation on Elasticsearch notification target usage
and has a link to an elasticsearch upgrade guide.
This is the last patch that finally resolves#3928.
This change adds `access` format support for notifications to a Redis
server, and it refactors `namespace` format support.
In the case of `access` format, a list is used to store Minio
operations in Redis. Each entry in the list is a JSON encoded list of
two items - the first is the Minio server timestamp of the event, and
the second is an object describing the operation that created/replaced
the object in the server.
In the case of `namespace` format, a hash is used. Entries in the hash
may be updated or removed if objects in Minio are updated or deleted
respectively. The field values in the Redis hash are JSON encoded.
Also updates documentation on Redis notification target usage.
Towards resolving #3928
* Add configuration parameter "format" for db targets and perform
configuration migration.
* Add PostgreSQL `access` format: This causes Minio to append all events
to the configured table. Prefix, suffix and event filters continue
to be supported for this mode too.
* Update documentation for PostgreSQL notification target.
* Add MySQL `access` format: It is very similar to the same format for
PostgreSQL.
* Update MySQL notification documentation.
This and the link for downloading Minio server at other places in the docs seems to be broken. I suppose this happened while updating the name of the page (which updated the url) in Doctor docs.
Might be nice for Doctor to update internal links if the name of a page is changed in a background job.
As a new configuration parameter is added, configuration version is
bumped up from 14 to 15.
The MySQL target's behaviour is identical to the PostgreSQL: rows are
deleted from the MySQL table on delete-object events, and are
created/updated on create/over-write events.
Following is a sample list lock API request schematic,
/?lock&bucket=mybucket&prefix=myprefix&duration=holdDuration
x-minio-operation: list
The response would contain the list of locks held on mybucket matching
myprefix for a duration longer than holdDuration.
* Filter lock info based on bucket, prefix and time since lock was held
* Implement list and clear locks REST API
* madmin: Add list and clear locks API
* locks: Clear locks matching bucket, prefix, relTime.
* Gather lock information across nodes for both list and clear locks admin REST API.
* docs: Add lock API to management APIs
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.
