This is a [**beta** feature](https://about.gitlab.com/handbook/product/#beta) and is not ready yet for production use at any scale. The main limitations are a lack of testing at scale and no verification of any replicated data.
**Secondary** nodes can replicate files stored on the **primary** node regardless of
whether they are stored on the local filesystem or in object storage.
