### Limitations on replication/verification
The following table lists the GitLab features along with their replication
and verification status on a **secondary** node.
You can keep track of the progress to implement the missing items in
these epics/issues:

- [Verify all replicated data](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/1430)

1. The integrity can be verified manually using
[Integrity Check Rake Task](../../raketasks/check.md)
on both nodes and comparing the output between them.
1. Enable the `enable_geo_design_sync` feature flag by running the
following in a Rails console:
```ruby
Feature.disable(:enable_geo_design_sync)
```
DANGER: **DANGER**
Features not on this list, or with **No** in the **Replicated** column,
are not replicated on the **secondary** node. Failing over without manually
replicating data from those features will cause the data to be **lost**.
If you wish to use those features on a **secondary** node, or to execute a failover
successfully, you must replicate their data using some other means.
There is a complete list of all GitLab [data types](datatypes.md) and [existing support for replication and verification](datatypes.md#limitations-on-replicationverification).
