## GitLab Geo (EE)
GitLab Geo allows you to replicate your GitLab instance to other
geographical locations as a read-only fully operational version.
When Geo is enabled, we reffer to your original instance as a **primary**
node and the replicated read-only ones as **secondaries**.
GitLab Geo requires some additional work installing and configuring your
instance, than a normal setup.
### Primary Node
To make your day-use instance a primary Geo node, you access your
administration screen and go to Gitlab Geo `/admin/geo_nodes`.
You must add your instance address the same way it is configured on
your `gitlab.yml`, select **this is a primary node** and save.
### Secondary Node
To install a secondary node, you must follow your normal install
instructions with some extra requirements:
* You must replicate your database to this instance.
* Primary node must be able to access this instance by HTTP/HTTPS
### Current limitations
* You cannot push code to secondary nodes
* Git LFS is not supported yet
* Git Annex is not supported yet
