just saw this update here. Hehe.... yep, the VIP. The documentation is spread out over many sites so it's often hard to find what you are looking for. There is an 'embedded' rancher that controls the harvester cluster and even an embedded UI for harvester's rancher manager UI but that is only used for support purposes. Rancher manager is supposed to be installed separately for creating kubernetes nodes on harvester, Although some of us for testing purposes install in on a VM in harvester. It's very confusing. I'm hoping SUSE will do one of their 'rodeos' or a master class on the rancher and harvester integration soon.

It is certainly confusing. As a newcomer, all I heard about was Harvester, so looking at Rancher in the first login made little sense to me. Furthermore, there different states of dashboard redirection does not help any better (2 dashboards on the same IP and port?) Harvester seems to be an interesting product with some learning curve at the beginning. Putting the not-so-greaf initial UX aside, I'm excited to learn more about this product.

It is certainly exciting. I think SUSE acquisition of Rancher Labs was just the right thing to do to put them back on the map and to compete with the likes of RedHat and vmware. I have huge hopes that they can pull this tangled mess together to be coherent in not only technology but the documentation spread out all over the place. I'm actually betting my career on it.
