# Running Minio as a service on Linux
|
|
|
|
## Install Minio service
|
|
|
|
Systemctl is a controller for systemd system and service manager. This document assumes operating system to be Ubuntu 16.04 (LTS) with `systemctl`.
|
|
|
|
Create a default minio startup config file at `/etc/default/minio`. `MINIO_VOLUMES` should be updated with the correct path.
|
|
```
|
|
cat <<EOT >> /etc/default/minio
|
|
# Local export path.
|
|
MINIO_VOLUMES="/mnt/export"
|
|
# Use if you want to run Minio on a custom port.
|
|
# MINIO_OPTS="--address :9001"
|
|
|
|
EOT
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Optionally you can also override your Minio access credentials as shown below.
|
|
```
|
|
cat <<EOT >> /etc/default/minio
|
|
# Access key of the server.
|
|
MINIO_ACCESS_KEY=YOUR-ACCESSKEY
|
|
# Secret key of the server.
|
|
MINIO_SECRET_KEY=YOUR-SECRETKEY
|
|
|
|
EOT
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Download `minio.service` into `/etc/systemd/system/`
|
|
```
|
|
( cd /etc/systemd/system/; curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/minio/minio-service/master/linux-systemd/minio.service )
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Enable Minio service
|
|
|
|
Once we have successfully copied the `minio.service` we will enable it to start on boot.
|
|
```
|
|
systemctl enable minio.service
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Disable Minio service
|
|
```
|
|
systemctl disable minio.service
|
|
```
|
