HOW TO INSTALL MINIO ON ROCKY LINUX 8

Prerequisites

  • An Rocky Linux system.
  • A user with root or sudo privileges. This user will be used for installing new packages and make changes system-wide.

Installing MinIO on Rocky Linux

Use the following command to run a standalone MinIO server on Linux hosts running 64-bit Intel/AMD architectures. Replace /data with the path to the drive or directory in which you want MinIO to store data.

dnf -y install wget
wget https://dl.min.io/server/minio/release/linux-amd64/minio
chmod +x minio
mkdir /data
./minio server /data

Result:

RootUser: minioadmin 
RootPass: minioadmin

WARNING: Console endpoint is listening on a dynamic port (32889), please use --console-address ":PORT" to choose a static port.
WARNING: Detected default credentials 'minioadmin:minioadmin', we recommend that you change these values with 'MINIO_ROOT_USER' and 'MINIO_ROOT_PASSWORD' environment variables

The MinIO deployment starts using default root credentials minioadmin:minioadmin. You can test the deployment using the MinIO Console, an embedded web-based object browser built into MinIO Server. Point a web browser running on the host machine to http://127.0.0.1:9000 and log in with the root credentials. You can use the Browser to create buckets, upload objects, and browse the contents of the MinIO server.

You can also connect using any S3-compatible tool, such as the MinIO Client mc commandline tool.
