+# Setup
+
+Take a look at 01-broken-setup. Ideally when you setup, you need to have a meta.properties file in the kafka-data ( /var/lib/kafka/data ) directory. This file is created when Kafka starts for the first time.
+
+```
+#

+cluster.id=5L6g3nShT-eMCtK--X86sw
+directory.id=Xsizaw8IS7uzzJrI-zTLMQ
+node.id=1
+version=1
+```
+
+If this file is missing, the docker image will make one. But in case you run multiple brokers, all need to have the same cluster.id. So they can talk to each other. This is known as generate/format Kraft storage.
