Hey - So we use vSphere to host all our RKE2 clusters. I'll be very honest and say that we've had a much easier time using the upstream VMWare controller installation docs, rather than the Rancher ones. I'd suggest giving it a try. The docs are on the VM website and very clear, concise, and easy to update when needed.

Ok, that is an option, but not so nice from an automation perspective. Thanks, I will look into it. A related question is: how to automatically install the CPI and CSI when developers create a cluster using Rancher?
