. Does it refer to the Rancher installation? In my case we have on-prem bare metal cluster with Rancher + app workloads sharing the same cluster. I cannot connect to the Rancher cluster. I have the kubeconfig YAML downloaded but not sure on where i am connecting - is it Rancher API Server or k8s API server endpoint and also what is the user?ancient-energy-15842

cluster is the one running in the docker container on the Rancher machine, that runs the WebUI and other managment services and operators
to know which one are you connecting to, you can look to the URL of the server
field in the kubeconfig file
if ends in k8s/clusters/local
, thats the local cluster, or the management cluster, if ends in a string like c-m-XXXXXXXX
its your real cluster, where your workloads run, for example k8s/clusters/c-m-xzfwzztb

cluster and also another cluster called rancher-web
. Ideally Rancher cluster and the kubernetes cluster (where workloads are deployed) are separate clusters, is that a good practice?ancient-energy-15842
