How to quickly install MinIO on CentOS

Complete Guide to Rapid Deployment of MinIO Clusters on CentOS Systems

This article will guide you how to quickly build a MinIO object storage cluster on CentOS system. We will cover all steps from preparation to final verification. Please note that the following steps are based on specific MinIO and CentOS versions. The specific operations may vary slightly depending on version differences. It is recommended to refer to the official MinIO documentation for the latest installation guide.

1. Preparation

1. Cluster planning: Plan the number of cluster nodes, IP address, role allocation (for example, roles of each node), and the disk used by each node to store MinIO data.

2. Basic environment configuration:

   • Ensure that SSH-free login can be performed between all nodes.
   • Configure the /etc/hosts file to add the correct hostname and IP address mappings for all nodes. (For example, add the hostname and IP address of the node to the hosts file)
   • (Optional) Generate SSH keys to achieve a more secure password-free login.

3. Security settings:

   • Turn off the firewall: Stop and disable the CentOS firewall service to ensure that the MinIO service can be accessed normally. (Use the systemctl command to stop and disable the firewall service)

4. System resource adjustment:

   • Check the current maximum number of open files in the system.
   • Modify the /etc/security/limits.conf file to increase the maximum file descriptor limit for each user to meet the needs of MinIO's high concurrent access. (For example, set higher file descriptor limits for minio users)

5. Directory and file creation:

   • Use Ansible or other automation tools to create the directory structure required by MinIO (for example, data directories, configuration file directories, etc.) and necessary configuration file templates.

6. Disk partitioning and mount:

   • Create an extended partition and a logical partition for storing MinIO data on each node.
   • Format these partitions (for example, ext4 file system).
   • Mount the formatted partition to a pre-created directory.
   • Update the /etc/fstab file to ensure that these partitions are automatically mounted after the system restarts.

2. MinIO installation

1. Download the installation package: Use the wget command to download the MinIO installation package for Linux system. (Please replace it with the download link of the corresponding version)

2. Install MinIO: Use a suitable package manager (for example, yum ) to install the downloaded MinIO installation package.

3. Configure the systemd service:

   • Create and configure the minio.service file (located in /usr/lib/systemd/system/ or /etc/systemd/system/ ) to define the startup parameters of the MinIO service.
   • Create and configure /etc/default/minio file, set MinIO's access key, secret key and other necessary parameters.

III. Start, configure and verify

1. Start MinIO service: Use the systemctl command to start MinIO service.

2. Configure the access key:

   • Create a MinIO user and set the group to which it belongs.
   • Set up access keys and secret keys using MinIO's provided command line tools or the management console.

3. Verify installation:

   • Use the MinIO client command line tool to test the connection and verify that MinIO is running normally.
   • Access MinIO's web management console, log in with the configured access key and secret key to verify that the installation is successful.

Through the above steps, you can successfully build a MinIO cluster on the CentOS system. Be sure to refer to the official MinIO documentation for the latest information and best practices.
