## Creating a cluster layout
Creating a cluster layout for a Garage deployment means informing Garage
of the disk space available on each node of the cluster
as well as the zone (e.g. datacenter) each machine is located in.
of the disk space available on each node of the cluster, `-c`,
as well as the name of the zone (e.g. datacenter), `-z`, each machine is located in.
For our test deployment, we are using only one node. The way in which we configure
it does not matter, you can simply write:
For our test deployment, we are have only one node with zone named `dc1` and a
capacity of `1G`, though the capacity is ignored for a single node deployment
and can be changed later when adding new nodes.
```bash
garage layout assign -z dc1 -c 1G <node_id>
