Configure MinIO storage options and quotas in Blesta
Use PD MinIO S3 options to offer Storage Quota, Max Buckets and Versioning choices. These describe a customer’s service, separately from the host connection’s administrative permissions.
Generate and price the choices
- Open PD MinIO S3 → Products and locate the intended offering.
- Use Actions → Generate options.
- Review values and prices under Packages → Configurable Options.
- Check group assignment, visible choices and defaults on the actual order form.
- Compare a provisioned service with the accepted selections.
Record existing values and prices before regenerating options and inspect them afterwards. Do not assume regeneration preserved an edited price or a removed choice.
Review fixed defaults and client controls
Options hidden from the order form use the offering’s Module Settings defaults. Review those defaults deliberately rather than assuming a hidden option’s first value defines the service. Max Buckets includes the primary bucket.
Quota mode is set on the product or package; use separate offerings when selling different modes. Review Client: Bucket management, Client: Share links and Client: Storage settings before enabling them. A feature switch cannot add a provider capability that the module does not support.
Separate allowance from billing
Blesta does not provide native disk-usage overage invoicing for these services. Price the package’s storage tiers and use the module’s quota readings and notifications for follow-up.
A hard quota is enforced from collected usage, rather than an exact atomic bucket-size cap. Use the quota guide for upload pauses and the versioning guide before promising that a normal delete frees all stored space.
