  1. Added multiple disks in the VM:
mkfs.xfs /dev/vdb -L DISK1
mkfs.xfs /dev/vdc -L DISK2
mkfs.xfs /dev/vdd -L DISK3
mkfs.xfs /dev/vde -L DISK4
mkdir /data1
mkdir /data2
mkdir /data3
mkdir /data4
mount /dev/vdb /data1
mount /dev/vdc /data2
mount /dev/vdd /data3
mount /dev/vde /data4

It should looks like:

[root@localhost ccelis]# lsblk

vde           252:64   0   10G  0 disk /data4
  1. Run MinIO:
wget https://dl.min.io/server/minio/release/linux-arm64/minio
wget https://dl.min.io/client/mc/release/linux-arm64/mc
chmod +x minio
chmod +x mc
mv minio /usr/bin/minio
mv mc /usr/bin/minio-client
MINIO_ROOT_USER=minio MINIO_ROOT_PASSWORD=minio123 minio server /data{1...4} --address :9000 --console-address :9001
  1. Run mc:
minio-client alias set myminio http://192.168.205.6:9000 minio minio123

Cleaning:

rm -rf /data1/.minio.sys
rm -rf /data2/.minio.sys
rm -rf /data3/.minio.sys
rm -rf /data4/.minio.sys

Distributed MinIO multiple nodes:

export MINIO_ROOT_USER=minio
export MINIO_ROOT_PASSWORD=minio123
minio server http://minio{1...2}:9000/data{1...4} --address :9000 --console-address :9001

UFW:

dnf install https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-8.noarch.rpm
rpm -ivh https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm
subscription-manager repos --enable "rhel-*-optional-rpms" --enable "rhel-*-extras-rpms"
yum update --nobest
yum install snapd
systemctl enable --now snapd.socket
ln -s /var/lib/snapd/snap /snap
snap install ufw

Then open new terminal

ufw allow http
ufw allow https
ufw allow 9000
ufw allow 9001

Disable FireWall:

systemctl disable firewalld
systemctl status firewalld
