How to run MinIO in FreeNAS Slack

In this recipe we will learn how to run MinIO with FreeNAS.

1. Prerequisites

2. Installation Steps

Create a new Jail

Browse to Jails -> Add Jail in the FreeNAS UI, click Advanced and enter the following settings:

Name:         Minio
Template:     --- (unset, defaults to FreeBSD)
VImage:       Unticked

Configure relevant network settings for your environment. Click OK and wait for Jail to download and install.

Attach Storage

Browse to Jails -> View Jails -> Storage, click Add Storage and enter the following settings:

Jail:             Minio
Source:           </path/to/your/dataset>
Destination:      </path/to/your/dataset/inside/jail> (usually the same as 'Source' dataset for ease of use)
Read Only:        Unticked
Create Directory: Ticked

Download MinIO

Download MinIO into the jail:

curl -Lo/<jail_root>/Minio/usr/local/bin/minio https://dl.min.io/server/minio/release/freebsd-amd64/minio
chmod +x /<jail_root>/Minio/usr/local/bin/minio

Create MinIO Service

Create a new MinIO service file:

touch /<jail_root>/Minio/usr/local/etc/rc.d/minio
chmod +x /<jail_root>/Minio/usr/local/etc/rc.d/minio
nano /<jail_root>/Minio/usr/local/etc/rc.d/minio

Add the following content:

#!/bin/sh

# PROVIDE: minio
# KEYWORD: shutdown

# Define these minio_* variables in one of these files:
#       /etc/rc.conf
#       /etc/rc.conf.local
#       /etc/rc.conf.d/minio
#
# DO NOT CHANGE THESE DEFAULT VALUES HERE
#

# Add the following lines to /etc/rc.conf to enable minio:
#
#minio_enable="YES"
#minio_config="/etc/minio"


minio_enable="${minio_enable-NO}"
minio_config="${minio_config-/etc/minio}"
minio_disks="${minio_disks}"
minio_address="${minio_address-:443}"

. /etc/rc.subr

load_rc_config ${name}

name=minio
rcvar=minio_enable

pidfile="/var/run/${name}.pid"

command="/usr/sbin/daemon"
command_args="-c -f -p ${pidfile} /usr/local/bin/${name} -C \"${minio_config}\" server --address=\"${minio_address}\" ${minio_disks}"

run_rc_command "$1"

Configure MinIO Startup

Edit /<jail_root>/Minio/etc/rc.conf:

nano /<jail_root>/Minio/etc/rc.conf

Add the following content:

minio_enable="YES"
minio_config="/etc/minio"
minio_disks="</path/to/your/dataset/inside/jail>"
minio_address="<listen address / port>" (Defaults to :443)

Create MinIO config directories

mkdir -p /<jail_root>/Minio/etc/minio/certs

Create MinIO Private and Public Keys (Optional, if HTTPS required and minio_address set on port 443)

nano /<jail_root>/Minio/etc/minio/certs/public.crt
nano /<jail_root>/Minio/etc/minio/certs/private.key

Start MinIO Jail

Browse to Jails -> View Jails in the FreeNAS UI, select Minio and press the Start button (3rd from Left):

Test MinIO

Browse to http(s)://<ip_address>:<port> and confirm MinIO loads.
