How is your minio setup working for you? I'd heard some bad reviews early on and stayed away from it. Do you run it in any high-availability mode? Have you tested backups/restores? Would like to hear anything you'd like to share about it.


Not the OP but I run a Minio instance in my homelab. It's not in HA-mode but is on a VM that is replicated across my 3 proxmox nodes. I just use a simple docker-compose file (17 lines) and haven't run into any issues yet.


Very neat! If you lose a node, are you guaranteed to be able to recover from the other two? Are those VMs running on the same host?


I have three physical nodes (Dell micro-PCs) and the VM will automatically failover if one node is lost. It's not quite instant but meets my requirements fine.


It's not HA. It's part of my pre-production env where my app works normally without inflicting any additional costs. I never heard of any MinIO production stories. I don't use backups/restores.
