MinIO *requires* exclusive access to the transitioned data on the remote storage
tier. MinIO ignores any objects in the remote bucket or bucket prefix not
explicitly managed by the MinIO deployment. Automatic transition and transparent
object retrieval depend on the following assumptions:
MinIO *requires* exclusive access to the transitioned data on the remote storage tier.
Object metadata on the "hot" MinIO source is strongly linked to the object data on the "warm/cold" remote tier.
MinIO cannot retrieve object data without access to the remote, nor can the remote be used to restore lost metadata on the source.
All access to the transitioned objects *must* occur through MinIO via S3 API operations only.
Manually modifying a transitioned object - whether the metadata on the "hot" MinIO tier *or* the object data on the remote "warm/cold" tier - may result in loss of that object data.
MinIO ignores any objects in the remote bucket or bucket prefix not explicitly managed by the MinIO deployment.
Automatic transition and transparent object retrieval depend on the following assumptions:
- No external mutation, migration, or deletion of objects on the remote storage.
- No lifecycle management rules (e.g. transition or expiration) on the remote
storage bucket.
MinIO stores all transitioned objects in the remote storage bucket or resource
under a unique per-deployment prefix value. This value is not intended to
support identifying the source deployment from the backend. MinIO supports an
additional optional human-readable prefix when configuring the remote target,
which may facilitate operations related to diagnostics, maintenance, or disaster
recovery.

MinIO supports an additional optional human-readable prefix when configuring the remote target, which may facilitate operations related to diagnostics, maintenance, or disaster recovery.
MinIO recommends specifying this optional prefix for remote storage tiers which
contain other data, including transitioned objects from other MinIO deployments.

This tutorial includes the necessary syntax for setting this prefix.
