Documented steps

  1. Enable versioning on BOTH source and target buckets: mc version enable srcAlias/sourceBucket and mc version enable tgtAlias/targetBucket (required).
  2. Add the replication rule: mc replicate add srcAlias/sourceBucket --remote-bucket tgtAlias/targetBucket --priority 1
  3. Or target by URL with inline credentials: mc replicate add myminio/src --remote-bucket https://user:pass@target-host:9000/target --priority 1
  4. List rules: mc replicate list myminio/src ; inspect progress: mc replicate status myminio/src
  5. For synchronous (active-active) replication add --sync (default is async).
