we did this by either installing rancher in a VM on Harvester, or better would be to deploy rancher vcluster using Harvester Addons (https://docs.harvesterhci.io/v1.2/advanced/addons/rancher-vcluster)

Thanks for this addon
Ye but before it wasn’t recommended to run rancher in the same hardware since it can break during node updates
But thanks anyway i appreciate the advice
b
well, if harvester is deployed highly available, a single node is updated at time, so it might work to install rancher-vcluster as a HA deployment (even though i didn’t tested it)
f
I had v1.1.2 and had rancher running in a VM inside it
It got stuck
b
when running inside a vm, rancher is not HA
when deploying it via Havrester Addon, what happens is that Harvester will create a virtual Kubernetes cluster inside his own embedded Kubernetes cluster
and it that virtual cluster will deploy Rancher
f
I got it i will test this tomorrow and i will let u know if i get any issues
Thanks @blue-kitchen-51801
b
you’re welcome

do i need to assign a subdomain to it
or just configure in my local dns
b
yes, i think so
f
but where do i point it
in haverster mgmt ip
sorry
im beeing lame
in reading the deployment now
b
i’ve tried to improve rancher-vcluster by adding LetsEncrypt using Cloudflare DNS challanges: https://github.com/iosifnicolae2/experimental-addons/blob/main/rancher-vcluster/rancher-vcluster.yaml
what Harvester addon does is to apply that manifest in the embedded Kubernetes cluster from Harvester
that manifest is creating a 
vcluster
(which is like a virtual Kubernetes cluster so rancher resources are isolated)
and inside the vcluster it’s deployed rancher using the default Helm chart (https://github.com/iosifnicolae2/experimental-addons/blob/main/rancher-vcluster/rancher-vcluster.yaml#L110)
