A client asked recently how SolidFire can integrate with Rancher. I had a few RHEL servers available, so I'm going to set up Rancher on RHEL. Here are the first steps:
Install a supported version of Docker (align compatibility for Docker, K8s, and Rancher): curl https://releases.rancher.com/install-docker/1.12.sh | sh
sudo service docker start
sudo docker run -d --restart=unless-stopped -p 8080:8080 rancher/server
sudo docker run -d --restart=unless-stopped -p 8080:8080 rancher/server
Alright, let's pause here. What did we just do? First, we installed Docker. Docker is the software that enables you to easily download, create, run, and manage containers. Next we made sure the docker service was running. Last we downloaded a container that will run the Rancher software. At this point, you should be able to reach rancher's gui at :8080.
So let's get K8s and Trident up! First we need a place to deploy K8s. Click Infrastructure | Hosts.
Click add host.
And then save
Then enter the IP address of the server that will function as a host for containers. Follow the instructions to copy-paste the command into a console on your new host server.
Done!
