The Reference Configuration for Rancher on HPE SimpliVity is part of an overall solution from Hewlett Packard Enterprise. The solution playbooks deploy Rancher on a highly available Kubernetes admin cluster along with a number of supporting nodes external to the cluster, for load balancing and DHCP services. The playbooks also deploy an example user cluster with optional CSI storage.
