## Plakar
Create your key and bucket on Garage server:
```bash
garage key create my-plakar-key
garage bucket create plakar-backups
garage bucket allow plakar-backups --read --write --key my-plakar-key
```
On Plakar server, add your Garage as a storage location:
```bash
plakar store add garageS3 s3://my-garage.tld/plakar-backups \
region=garage # Or as you've specified in garage.toml \
access_key=<Key ID from "garage key info my-plakar-key"> \
secret_access_key=<Secret key from "garage key info my-plakar-key">
```
Then create the repository.
```bash
plakar at @garageS3 create -plaintext # Unencrypted
# or
plakar at @garageS3 create #encrypted
```
If you encrypt your backups (Plakar default), you will need to define a strong passphrase. Do not forget to save your password safely. It will be needed to decrypt your backups.
After the repository has been created, check that everything works as expected (that might give an empty result as no file has been added yet, but no error message):
```bash
plakar at @garageS3 check
```
Now that everything is configure, you can use Garage as your backups storage. For instance sync it with a local backup storage:
```bash
$ plakar at ~/backups sync to @garageS3
```
Or list the S3 storage content:
```bash
$ plakar at @garageS3 ls
```

#### `block_max_concurrent_reads` (since `v1.3.0` / `v2.1.0`) {#block_max_concurrent_reads}
The maximum number of blocks (individual files in the data directory) open
simultaneously for reading.
Reducing this number does not limit the number of data blocks that can be
transferred through the network simultaneously. This mechanism was just added
as a backpressure mechanism for HDD read speed: it helps avoid a situation
where too many requests are coming in and Garage is reading too many block
files simultaneously, thus not making timely progress on any of the reads.
When a request to read a data block comes in through the network, the requests
awaits for one of the `block_max_concurrent_reads` slots to be available
(internally implemented using a Semaphore object). Once it acquired a read
slot, it reads the entire block file to RAM and frees the slot as soon as the
block file is finished reading. Only after the slot is released will the
block's data start being transferred over the network. If the request fails to
acquire a reading slot wihtin 15 seconds, it fails with a timeout error.
Timeout events can be monitored through the `block_read_semaphore_timeouts`
metric in Prometheus: a non-zero number of such events indicates an I/O
bottleneck on HDD read speed.
#### `lmdb_map_size` {#lmdb_map_size}
