In Garage, all of the data that can be stored in a given cluster is divided
into slices which we call *partitions*. Each partition is stored by
one or several nodes in the cluster
(see [`replication_mode`](@/documentation/reference-manual/configuration.md#replication-mode)).
(see [`replication_mode`](@/documentation/reference-manual/configuration.md#replication_mode)).
The layout determines the correspondence between these partition,
which exist on a logical level, and actual storage nodes.

## The `[consul_discovery]` section
### The `[consul_discovery]` section
Garage supports discovering other nodes of the cluster using Consul. For this
to work correctly, nodes need to know their IP address by which they can be
reached by other nodes of the cluster, which should be set in `rpc_public_addr`.
### `consul_http_addr` and `service_name`
#### `consul_http_addr` {#consul_http_addr}
The `consul_http_addr` parameter should be set to the full HTTP(S) address of the Consul server.
### `api`
#### `api` {#consul_api}
Two APIs for service registration are supported: `catalog` and `agent`. `catalog`, the default, will register a service using
the `/v1/catalog` endpoints, enabling mTLS if `client_cert` and `client_key` are provided. The `agent` API uses the
`v1/agent` endpoints instead, where an optional `token` may be provided.
### `service_name`
#### `service_name` {#consul_service_name}
`service_name` should be set to the service name under which Garage's
RPC ports are announced.
### `client_cert`, `client_key`
#### `client_cert`, `client_key` {#consul_client_cert}
TLS client certificate and client key to use when communicating with Consul over TLS. Both are mandatory when doing so.

## The `[kubernetes_discovery]` section
### The `[kubernetes_discovery]` section
Garage supports discovering other nodes of the cluster using kubernetes custom
resources. For this to work, a `[kubernetes_discovery]` section must be present
with at least the `namespace` and `service_name` parameters.
### `namespace`
#### `namespace` {#kube_namespace}
`namespace` sets the namespace in which the custom resources are
configured.
### `service_name`
#### `service_name` {#kube_service_name}
`service_name` is added as a label to the advertised resources to
filter them, to allow for multiple deployments in a single namespace.
### `skip_crd`
#### `skip_crd` {#kube_skip_crd}
`skip_crd` can be set to true to disable the automatic creation and
patching of the `garagenodes.deuxfleurs.fr` CRD. You will need to create the CRD
manually.
