provides a single IP address and DNS name by which the pods can be accessed. This load balancing configuration is much easier to manage, and helps scale pods seamlessly. Volume A volume is a directory a Rancher server is easy. You can set one up by following instructions here, or if you wish to use Vagrant, you can clone the repo here and run vagrant up. When you deploy Rancher server, you should Once you run above command on a new machine, the host(s) tries to contact the Rancher server with the key. The server then verifies the key and registers the agent. Based on the environment to which the

For edge deployments, SUSE Rancher does Kubernetes in the most efficient way possible. Kubernetes from SUSE Rancher with RKE uses a configuration syntax designed for clarity and dynamic cluster reconfiguration with no downtime. 3.1.1.2 application clusters happens through the installer GUI or via command-line directives that use a YAML configuration file. Clusters can run on vSphere, Amazon, Microsoft Azure or GCP nodes if operators choose to
