General question. I have four servers and was thinking to dedicate three of the servers for Harvester. However, do I need external DNS and DHCP server in order to deploy the Harvester cluster?

No you do not need your own DNS servers or a DNCP server in order to install a Harvester cluster. The nodes of the Harvester cluster can be given static IP addresses and can be given an external DNS server (eg 8.8.8.8).

The external DNS 8.8.8.8 is for what use? This is closed environment without Internet access. Images are uploaded manually. Thank you.

I thought if the air-gapped environment. Just so you know, you don’t need the external DNS. But maybe the DHCP server is better to have.
