Introduction
------------

This chart bootstraps MinIO Operator on a [Kubernetes](http://kubernetes.io) cluster using the [Helm](https://helm.sh) package manager.

Configure MinIO Helm repo
--------------------

```bash
helm repo add minio https://operator.min.io/
```

Installing the Chart
--------------------

Install this chart using:

```bash
helm install \
  --namespace minio-operator \
  --create-namespace \
  minio-operator minio/operator
```

The command deploys MinIO Operator on the Kubernetes cluster in the default configuration.

Creating a Tenant
-----------------

Once the MinIO Operator Chart is successfully installed, create a MinIO Tenant using:

```bash
helm install --namespace tenant-ns \
  --create-namespace tenant minio/tenant
```

This creates a 4 Node MinIO Tenant (cluster). To change the default values, take a look at various [values.yaml](https://github.com/minio/operator/blob/master/helm/tenant/values.yaml).
