According to the official MinIO Guide (https://docs.min.io/docs/minio-quickstart-guide.html):
For example, consider a MinIO deployment behind a proxy https://minio.example.net, https://console.minio.example.net with rules for forwarding traffic on port :9000 and :9001 to MinIO and the MinIO Console respectively on the internal network. Set MINIO_BROWSER_REDIRECT_URL to https://console.minio.example.net to ensure the browser receives a valid reachable URL.
I have already setup a distributed minio using k3s and a Load Balancer service.
$ kubectl describe services minio-service -n minio
Name: minio-service
Namespace: minio
Labels: app=minio
Annotations: <none>
Selector: app=minio
Type: LoadBalancer
IP Family Policy: SingleStack
IP Families: IPv4
IP: 10.43.168.142
IPs: 10.43.168.142
LoadBalancer Ingress: 192.168.10.119, 192.168.10.120, 192.168.10.70
Port: <unset> 9012/TCP
TargetPort: 9011/TCP
NodePort: <unset> 31423/TCP
Endpoints: 10.42.1.13:9011,10.42.2.12:9011
Session Affinity: None
External Traffic Policy: Cluster
Events: <none>
If I try curl -vf http://192.168.10.70:9012 I get
curl: (7) Failed to connect to 192.168.1.70 port 9012: Connection timed out
Thus, I used export MINIO_BROWSER_REDIRECT_URL=http://192.168.10.70:9012
but it doesn't work. Am I doing something wrong with redirection? Does anyone know how to fix this?
I managed to make it work using port-forward.
Options:
kubectl port-forward minio-0 9000 -n minio
Forwarding from 127.0.0.1:9000 -> 9000
kubectl port-forward --address 192.168.10.70 pod/minio-0 9000 -n minio
Forwarding from 192.168.10.70:9000 -> 9000
kubectl port-forward --address 192.168.10.70 svc/minio-service 9012 -n minio
Forwarding from 192.168.10.70:9012 -> 9011
Note that in the third option, minio-service is a Load Balancer Service
