Garage

Garage is a distributed storage service. It powers https://mzhang.io, this site, as well as many of the other apps.

Cluster Information

There are several nodes:

  • Minihost. This node probably has the best uptime.
  • Zhang. This node runs in my parents’ house.
  • Mac. This node is offline a lot.
  • Desktop (Windows). This runs an unsupported Windows build of garage.

I have the cluster running on consistency_mode = "degraded". This is because I don’t have 2 machines that will stay online consistently yet (this may change when I ask my parents to keep the computer on all the time). On the default setting of consistent, reads will fail, which causes https://mzhang.io to go down whenever there’s less than 2 machines online.

Administration

There is an administration interface at http://minihost:3909 (VPN-private).
