Rancher recommended us to install Rancher Server using Helm.
So we will walkthrough the process of both installing helm and Rancher.
We recommend using Helm, a Kubernetes package manager, to install Rancher on multiple nodes on a dedicated Kubernetes cluster. For RKE clusters, three nodes are required to achieve a high-availability cluster.
However, in this lab we only have one HA cluster so we will use this cluster to install Rancher.
Download a binary release of the Helm client. You can use tools like homebrew
, or look at the official releases page.
For more details, or for other options, see the installation guide.
