+# Repository storage paths
+
+> [Introduced][ce-4578] in GitLab 8.10.
+
+GitLab allows you to define multiple repository storage paths to distribute the
+storage load between several mount points.
+
+>**Notes:**
+>
+- You must have at least one storage path called `default`.
+- The paths are defined in key-value pairs. The key is an arbitrary name you
+  can pick to name the file path.
+- The target directories and any of its subpaths must not be a symlink.
+
+## Configure GitLab
+
+>**Warning:**
+In order for [backups] to work correctly, the storage path must **not** be a
+mount point and the GitLab user should have correct permissions for the parent
+directory of the path. In Omnibus GitLab this is taken care of automatically,
+but for source installations you should be extra careful.
+>
+The thing is that for compatibility reasons `gitlab.yml` has a different
+structure than Omnibus. In `gitlab.yml` you indicate the path for the
+repositories, for example `/home/git/repositories`, while in Omnibus you
+indicate `git_data_dirs`, which for the example above would be `/home/git`.
+Then, Omnibus will create a `repositories` directory under that path to use with
+`gitlab.yml`.
+>
+This little detail matters because while restoring a backup, the current
+contents of  `/home/git/repositories` [are moved to][raketask] `/home/git/repositories.old`,
+so if `/home/git/repositories` is the mount point, then `mv` would be moving
+things between mount points, and bad things could happen. Ideally,
+`/home/git` would be the mount point, so then things would be moving within the
+same mount point. This is guaranteed with Omnibus installations (because they
+don't specify the full repository path but the parent path), but not for source
+installations.
+
+---
+
+Now that you've read that big fat warning above, let's edit the configuration
+files and add the full paths of the alternative repository storage paths. In
+the example below, we add two more mountpoints that are named `nfs` and `cephfs`
+respectively.
+
+**For installations from source**
+
+1. Edit `gitlab.yml` and add the storage paths:
+
+    ```yaml
+    repositories:
+      # Paths where repositories can be stored. Give the canonicalized absolute pathname.
+      # NOTE: REPOS PATHS MUST NOT CONTAIN ANY SYMLINK!!!
+      storages: # You must have at least a 'default' storage path.
+        default: /home/git/repositories
+        nfs: /mnt/nfs/repositories
+        cephfs: /mnt/cephfs/repositories
+    ```
+
+1. [Restart GitLab] for the changes to take effect.
+
+>**Note:**
+The [`gitlab_shell: repos_path` entry][repospath] in `gitlab.yml` will be
+deprecated and replaced by `repositories: storages` in the future, so if you
+are upgrading from a version prior to 8.10, make sure to add the configuration
+as described in the step above. After you make the changes and confirm they are
+working, you can remove the `repos_path` line.
+
+---
+
+**For Omnibus installations**
+
+1. Edit `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb` by appending the rest of the paths to the
+   default one:
+
+    ```ruby
+    git_data_dirs({
+      "default" => "/var/opt/gitlab/git-data",
+      "nfs" => "/mnt/nfs/git-data",
+      "cephfs" => "/mnt/cephfs/git-data"
+    })
+    ```
+
+    Note that Omnibus stores the repositories in a `repositories` subdirectory
+    of the `git-data` directory.
+
+## Choose where new project repositories will be stored
+
+Once you set the multiple storage paths, you can choose where new projects will
+be stored via the **Application Settings** in the Admin area.
+
+![Choose repository storage path in Admin area](img/repository_storages_admin_ui.png)
+
+Beginning with GitLab 8.13.4, multiple paths can be chosen. New projects will be
+randomly placed on one of the selected paths.
