Can the network your Rancher server is on communicate to the network your cluster deployment is on? And vice versa? Can both networks connect to the internet for their images? Ir connect thru a proxy or private/air-gapped registry for their system images?

Thank you @modern-television-79263 for replying. I did add sonatype nexus and that fixed the initial problem of downloading initial containers . In regards to the first question of network connectivity I would presume so as I can ssh into it. I also did a test and that is I stopped the rancher system-agent on that node and just installed rke2 using the normal curl command...

Gotcha. The next bit I would check are your node templates to be sure the drops downs for the networking, datastore and what not are correct.

Thank you @modern-television-79263. I got the correct values your cloud-init and set up a container registry mirror and it is now working using rancher
