page_title: Bootstrap a Datacenter
description: >-
An agent can run in both client and server mode. Server nodes are responsible
for running the consensus protocol and storing the cluster state. Before a
Consul cluster can begin to service requests, a server node must be elected
leader. Thus, the first nodes that are started are generally the server nodes.
Bootstrapping is the process of joining these server nodes into a cluster.
Bootstrapping a datacenter is the initial deployment process in Consul that starts server agents and joins them together. Learn how to automatically or manually join servers in a cluster.

page_title: Manually Bootstrap a Datacenter
description: >-
When deploying Consul to a datacenter for the first time, there is an initial
bootstrapping that must be done. As of Consul 0.4, an automatic bootstrapping
is available and is the recommended approach. However, older versions only
support a manual bootstrap that is documented here.
Manually bootstrap a datacenter to deploy your Consul servers and join them together for the first time. As of Consul v0.4, automatic bootstrapping is recommended instead.
