## Description {#description}

The [`mc admin config`](#command-mc.admin.config) command manages configuration settings for the [`minio`](/reference/minio-server/#command-minio) server.

> [!NOTE]
> **Use `mc admin` on MinIO Deployments Only**
>
> MinIO does not support using [`mc admin`](/reference/minio-mc-admin/#command-mc.admin) commands with other S3-compatible services, regardless of their claimed compatibility with MinIO deployments.
