Question

How do I deploy rancher on a Linux system? I already have Docker installed.

Answer 1

Step 1: Prepare a Linux host and install Docker onto it. Use any Linux flavor supported by Docker, and install a version of Docker supported by Kubernetes:

• 18.06.2

Step 2: Execute the following command to download and run the Rancher server:

$ sudo docker run -d --restart=unless-stopped -p 80:80 -p 443:443 rancher/rancher:latest

The server takes less than a minute to install and will be available at https://<server_ip>. Once the server is running, log in and follow the instructions.
