# Consul Guides
|
|
|
|
This section provides various guides for common actions. Due to the nature
|
|
of Consul, some of these procedures can be complex, so our goal is to provide
|
|
guidance to do them safely.
|
|
|
|
The following guides are available:
|
|
|
|
* [Adding/Removing Servers](/docs/guides/servers.html) - This guide covers how to safely add
|
|
and remove Consul servers from the cluster. This should be done carefully to avoid availability
|
|
outages.
|
|
|
|
* [Bootstrapping](/docs/guides/bootstrapping.html) - This guide covers bootstrapping a new
|
|
datacenter. This covers safely adding the initial Consul servers.
|
|
|
|
* [DNS Forwarding](/docs/guides/forwarding.html) - Forward DNS queries from Bind to Consul
|
|
|
|
* [External Services](/docs/guides/external.html) - This guide covers registering
|
|
an external service. This allows using 3rd party services within the Consul framework.
|
|
|
|
* [Multiple Datacenters](/docs/guides/datacenters.html) - Configuring Consul to support multiple
|
|
datacenters.
|
|
|
|
* [Outage Recovery](/docs/guides/outage.html) - This guide covers recovering a cluster
|
|
that has become unavailable due to server failures.
