# Cluster configuration with multiple nodes

<!-- Version variant: raven_8; default: [/persistence/ravendb/cluster-configuration.md](/persistence/ravendb/cluster-configuration.md) -->


RavenDB version 5.2 and higher support cluster-wide transactions.

Cluster-wide transactions should be enabled when the database is replicated across multiple nodes in a cluster. If the database only resides on a single node, cluster-wide transactions are not required.

To enable cluster-wide transaction support, use:

<!-- snippet: ravendb-persistence-cluster-wide-transactions -->

```cs
var persistence = endpointConfiguration.UsePersistence<RavenDBPersistence>();
persistence.EnableClusterWideTransactions();
```
