Add new node to minio warm cluster

We now have a second minio cluster, currently just the node minio-fsn-02, that's used as a remote tier called warm by minio-01. However, that new cluster does not have enough storage space for the network-health bucket.

We want to:

  • Document how a storage node can be added to a minio cluster
    • test the procedure in a local lab
  • create a new VM in the fsn ganeti cluster (or on backup-storage-01?) and install minio
  • add new VM as new node in the warm cluster (linked to minio-fsn-02)
To upload designs, you'll need to enable LFS and have an admin enable hashed storage. More information
