Team: We need to assign static IP address to Harvester's VM using API? Is this possible? if yes than can you please share the steps?

What’s the preferred way of restoring longhorn backups of hotplug volumes created by provisioning volumes through the harvester csi provider?

Team: I am trying to automate harvester template build , can't find resources on how to accomplish this? Appreciate any help . Thanks

Good morning!

I have been trying to install Harvester using 1.0.3 ISO. It runs all the way up to "extracting file run.sh to /usr/local/tmp... and hangs, I let it sit for 12 hours, so it is def hung up. Tried to reinstall a few times, same issue.

Standard HP server gen 9,we run lots of them. Have multiple nics and multiple drives, choosing two standard ethernet ports for install, 500gb ssd for install, and 4tb ssd for vms.

Hello, <!here>, we are soliciting feedback on Harvester if you could fill out our survey here https://suselinux.fra1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_6QlPdSEeFKuQe90 this feedback helps us with the direction of Harvester.

USB install worked just fine.

i'm trying to install with java remote console and with virtual media drive.

same result as html5 remote console !

Yeah for some reason a remote iso install gets stuck

Is there a guide for setting up hyperconverged storage in Harvester?

may be this https://docs.harvesterhci.io/v1.0/

Nada

I am guessing we need to deploy kubernetes on it, then longhorn?

longhorn is already installed into harvester, you can add new host disk from host config interface in ui. you can access (but just for debug mode) to longhorn-harvester ui as mentionned in the harvester docs, not found where we can adjust the number of replicas 😕

Very interesting, that did not seem clear, will play with it more.

@bland-farmer-13503 In Longhorn dashboard, you can find

Default Replica Count

in

Setting > General

page. And you can modify replica count. ok got it ! thanks

Do you know how to deploy rancher VM(s) into harvester in order to integrate with harvester ? Do i need to create one vm with docker and run rancher container into it ? Or can we deploy a rancher app/helm into the harvester's integrated kubernetes ?

NICE! @bland-farmer-13503 Thank you.

Having an issue with the Harvester Install from PXE. The install goes pretty far but stalls on Checking 33 images in /var/lib/rke2/agent/images/harvester-images-v1.0.2.txt... I can't find out what it is doing and where to see the progress if it is actually getting images but taking it's sweet time. Any Help?

Hi folks, I have a new harvester install on an Intel machine and when I try to create a VM I am getting the following error:

0/1 nodes are available: 1 pod has unbound immediate PersistentVolumeClaims.

I see the following events:

Any suggestions on how to debug this issue?

How to reset harvester node password ? I did change it but old one comeback on reboot. This is the password for user rancher@node-ip. Thanks

Hi all! I've been pouring over the documentation, but I've got some questions about best practices for network config in an on-prem, multi-DC environment. I'm trying to get an idea of how many statics I'll need to earmark from our blocks, but I'm unclear on exactly which harvester IPs will need to be public-facing. For example, can the harvester-mgmt networks sit on a private range tucked behind the firewall, or would that mess with ACE when joining clusters in other DC's?

Good morning team! I'm trying to deploy a 4 node cluster and can get all of them to install with the tokens / master URL, but they never actually join the cluster. Each node ends up effectively being in stand alone mode. There are no firewalls / ACLs between them to block network traffic. What would be some good ways to troubleshoot what's going on and why the nodes won't connect? I've confirmed the tokens/URLs in the config are accurate

Anyone have any insight ^^ ?

Hi #harvester i have deployed harvester-1.0.3 over nested virtualization enabled KVM VM using iso image. because ipxe on baremetal was failing. Now the deployment is completed successfully but the harvester is going to Not Ready state from Ready state every now and then
