05/11/2023, 9:09 PMNevermind, I figured it out... difference was vsphere CPI driver.
Cluster that shows External-IP has CPI/CSI drivers installed
On second cluster where it was showing <none> it does not have those drivers installed (yet)

05/11/2023, 9:22 PMchanging the cloud provider after install isn’t really supported, it will probably work but you might run in to a fair bit of oddness

05/11/2023, 9:22 PMthe nodes get a label put on them that indicates what cloud-provider was in use when they joined the cluster, if you switch after the fact the new cloud provider won’t know what to do with the nodes that have the wrong cloud-provider id

05/11/2023, 9:26 PMOh! In this case I had left the default, so went back and edited the YAML...:

05/11/2023, 9:28 PMI can delete the cluster and recreate it since it is new... and will set the cloud provider to vSphere during creation

05/11/2023, 9:39 PMthat’s a better choice, if you can

05/11/2023, 9:40 PMthanks, I will recreate it.

05/11/2023, 10:07 PMforgive my ignorance here... In Rancher UI, during cluster creation I set the Cloud provider to vSphere.
Now, in Add-on config, if I enter login info, that will be visible to anyone who has cluster owner role correct?

05/11/2023, 10:09 PMOr, If I set Cloud Provider to External and after cluster is created I can deploy CPI/CSI from Apps. Is that supported method?

05/11/2023, 10:14 PMno, you should select the cloud provider when creating the cluster, if it is one of the cloud providers that comes with RKE2

05/11/2023, 10:14 PMOnly if there is no built-in cloud provider would you want to select External and then deploy it manually as an additional manifest
