The procedure on this page configures automatic server-side bucket replication between multiple MinIO deployments. Multi-Site Active-Active replication builds on the :ref:`minio-bucket-replication-serverside-twoway` procedure with additional considerations required to ensure predictable replication behavior across all sites.

- To configure replication between arbitrary S3-compatible services, use :mc:`mc mirror`.
|
|
|
|
- To configure one-way "active-active" replication between two MinIO deployments, see :ref:`minio-bucket-replication-serverside-twoway`.
|
|
|
|
- To configure one-way "active-passive" replication between MinIO deployments, see :ref:`minio-bucket-replication-serverside-oneway`.
|
|
|
|
Multi-Site Active-Active replication configurations can span multiple racks, datacenters, or geographic locations. Complexity of configuring and maintaining multi-site configurations generally increase with the number of sites and size of each site. Enterprises looking to implement multi-site replication should consider leveraging `MinIO SUBNET <https://min.io/pricing?ref=docs>`__ support to access the expertise, planning, and engineering resources required for addressing that use case.

Requirements
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
You must meet all of the basic requirements for bucket replication described in :ref:`Bucket Replication Requirements <minio-bucket-replication-requirements>`.
|
|
|
|
In addition, to create multi-site bucket replication set up, you must meet the following additional requirements:
|
|
|
|
Access to All Clusters
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
You must have network access and log in credentials with correct permissions to all deployments to set up multi-site active-active bucket replication.
|
|
|
|
You can access the deployments by logging in to the :ref:`MinIO Console <minio-console>` for each deployment or by installing :mc:`mc` and using the command line.
|
|
|
|
If using the command line, use the :mc:`mc alias set` command to create an alias for each MinIO deployment.
|
|
Alias creation requires specifying an access key for a user on the deployment.
|
|
This user **must** have permission to create and manage users and policies on the deployment.
|
|
|
|
Specifically, ensure the user has *at minimum*:
|
|
|
|
- :policy-action:`admin:CreateUser`
|
|
- :policy-action:`admin:ListUsers`
|
|
- :policy-action:`admin:GetUser`
|
|
- :policy-action:`admin:CreatePolicy`
|
|
- :policy-action:`admin:GetPolicy`
|
|
- :policy-action:`admin:AttachUserOrGroupPolicy`
|
|
|
|
|
|
Considerations
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
Click to expand any of the following:
|
|
|
|
.. dropdown:: Use Consistent Replication Settings
|
|
:icon: fold-down
|
|
|
|
MinIO supports customizing the replication configuration to enable or disable the following replication behaviors:
|
|
|
|
- Replication of delete operations
|
|
- Replication of delete markers
|
|
- Replication of existing objects
|
|
- Replication of metadata-only changes
|
|
|
|
When configuring replication rules for a bucket, ensure that all MinIO deployments participating in multi-site replication use the *same* replication behaviors to ensure consistent and predictable synchronization of objects.
|
|
|
|
.. dropdown:: Replication of Existing Objects
|
|
:icon: fold-down
|
|
|
|
MinIO supports automatically replicating existing objects in a bucket.
|
|
|
|
MinIO requires explicitly enabling replication of existing objects using the :mc-cmd:`mc replicate add --replicate` or :mc-cmd:`mc replicate update --replicate` and including the ``existing-objects`` replication feature flag.
|
|
This procedure includes the required flags for enabling replication of existing objects.
|
|
|
|
.. dropdown:: Replication of Delete Operations
|
|
:icon: fold-down
|
|
|
|
MinIO supports replicating delete operations onto the target bucket.
|
|
Specifically, MinIO can replicate versioning :s3-docs:`Delete Markers <versioning-workflows.html>` and the deletion of specific versioned objects:
|
|
|
|
- For delete operations on an object, MinIO replication also creates the delete marker on the target bucket.
|
|
|
|
- For delete operations on versions of an object, MinIO replication also deletes those versions on the target bucket.
|
|
|
|
MinIO requires explicitly enabling replication of delete operations using the :mc-cmd:`mc replicate add --replicate` or :mc-cmd:`mc replicate update --replicate`.
|
|
This procedure includes the required flags for enabling replication of delete operations and delete markers.
|
|
|
|
MinIO does *not* replicate delete operations resulting from the application of :ref:`lifecycle management expiration rules <minio-lifecycle-management-expiration>`.
|
|
Configure matching expiration rules for the bucket on all replication sites to ensure consistent application of object expiration.
|
|
|
|
Procedure
|
|
---------
|
|
|
|
This procedure requires repeating steps for each MinIO deployment participating in the multi-site replication configuration. Depending on the number of deployments, this procedure may require significant time and care in implementation. MinIO recommends reading through the procedure *before* attempting to implement the documented steps.

Repeat the above steps to create a rule from this deployment to each of the other target deployments.
|
|
|
|
Then, repeat the above steps on each of the other deployments in the multi-site setup so that each deployment has a separate replication rule for all of the other deployments.

Configure Multi-Site Bucket Replication Using the Command Line ``mc``
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
This procedure uses the placeholder ``ALIAS`` to reference the :ref:`alias <alias>` each MinIO deployment being configured for replication.
|
|
Replace these values with the appropriate alias for each MinIO deployment.
|
|
|
|
This procedure assumes each alias corresponds to a user with the :ref:`necessary replication permissions <minio-bucket-replication-requirements>`.
|
|
|
|
.. versionchanged:: RELEASE.2022-12-24T15-21-38Z
|
|
|
|
:mc:`mc replicate add` automatically creates the necessary replication targets, removing the need for using the deprecated ``mc admin remote bucket add`` command.
|
|
This procedure only documents the procedure as of that release.

:start-after: start-create-bucket-replication-rule-cli-desc

|
|
|
|
Repeat these commands for each remote MinIO deployment participating in the multi-site replication configuration.
|
|
For example, a multi-site replication configuration consisting of MinIO deployments ``minio1``, ``minio2``, and ``minio3`` would require repeating this step on each deployment for each remote.
|
|
|
|
Specifically, in this scenario, perform this step twice on each deployment:
|
|
|
|
- On the ``minio1`` deployment, once for a rule for ``minio2`` and again for a separate rule for ``minio3``.
|
|
|
|
- On the ``minio2`` deployment, once for a rule for ``minio1`` and again for a separate rule for ``minio3``.
|
|
|
|
- On the ``minio3`` deployment, once for a rule for ``minio1`` and again for a separate rule for ``minio2``.

|
:start-after: start-validate-bucket-replication-cli-desc
|

|
|
|
|
Repeat this test on each deployment by copying a new unique file and checking that the file replicates to each of the other deployments.
|
|
|
|
You can also use :mc:`mc stat` to check the file to check the current :ref:`replication stage <minio-replication-process>` of the object.
