 ## How to install
 
 Copy the healthcheck.jar into the Gerrit's /plugins directory and wait for the plugin to be automatically loaded.
+The healthcheck plugin is compatible with both Gerrit master and slave setups. The only difference to bear in mind
+is that some checks may not be successful on slaves (e.g. query changes) because the associated subsystem is switched
+off.
 
 ## How to use
