+#### `disable_scrub` {#disable_scrub}
+
+By default, Garage runs a scrub of the data directory approximately once per
+month, with a random delay to avoid all nodes running at the same time.  When
+it scrubs the data directory, Garage will read all of the data files stored on
+disk to check their integrity, and will rebuild any data files that it finds
+corrupted, using the remaining valid copies stored on other nodes.
+See [this page](@/documentation/operations/durability-repair.md#scrub) for details.
+
+Set the `disable_scrub` configuration value to `true` if you don't need Garage
+to scrub the data directory, for instance if you are already scrubbing at the
+filesystem level. Note that in this case, if you find a corrupted data file,
+you should delete it from the data directory and then call `garage repair
+blocks` on the node to ensure that it re-obtains a copy from another node on
+the network.
+
 #### `block_size` {#block_size}
 
 Garage splits stored objects in consecutive chunks of size `block_size`
