Quick start

1. Open the MinIO Console at http://<VM-IP>:9001/.
2. Sign in as `admin` with the generated password (see command below), then change it immediately.
3. Create your first bucket and access keys; point S3 clients at http://<VM-IP>:9000/.

Get your admin password (one time)

SSH into the VM with the username + key you chose at deploy, then print the generated credential:

ssh <your-username>@<VM-IP>
sudo cat /var/lib/minio/admin-password

Sign in as admin (unless noted), then change the password immediately. The file is root-only and can be deleted once the password is stored securely.
