Step 7: Create a MinIO config file by using the below command
[root@linuxhelplinuxhelp]# vim /opt/minio/minio.conf
MINIO_VOLUMES=/opt/minio/data
Step 8: Add minio systemd service files by using the below command
[root@linuxhelplinuxhelp]# vim /etc/systemd/system/minio.service

[root@linuxhelplinuxhelp]# systemctl status minio
Step 11: Take a note of your MinIO access and secret key by using the below command
[root@linuxhelplinuxhelp]# /opt/minio/data/.minio.sys/config/config.json
Access key : minioadmin
Secret key : minioadmin
Step 12: Restart the MinIO service by using the below command
[root@linuxhelplinuxhelp]# systemctl restart minio
Step 13: Once completed above step go to browser type the IP address as shown in the below image
You can access the Minio web interface by going to http://<server_ip>:9000/ – log in with the access and secret key
Step 14: Login with the access key and secret key as shown in the below image
