Information
This course covers deploying and administering Rancher
Manager for Rancher Prime in existing Kubernetes clusters.
The course begins with an introduction to Rancher Manager, what is required for
a deployment, different deployment strategies, and best practices for
deployment.
The next sections provide an understanding of deploying Rancher Manager in
three different ways, using self-signed certificates, Let’s Encrypt and signed
certificates, depending on your specific needs. Deployment in an air-gapped
environment is also covered. Students are taught how to back up and restore
Rancher Manager, migrate it to a new cluster, and how to upgrade it from a
previous version to the current one.
