I currently use ipxe /matchbox to automatically boot machines into coreos,
which mounts both an ssd and a raid 6 array and configures the network, ssh key etc…
it works great.
to evaluate rancher:
I currently ran the command to start the management node
sudo docker run -d --restart=unless-stopped -p 10.0.0.1:8080:8080 rancher/server:stable
then I create the kubernetes environment,
then I manually add the local host and other 2 physical nodes by copy pasting the commands provided by the add node web process.
my rancher / kubernetes is now live
excellent.
now I would like this setup to a bit more permanent and survive a reboot.
What is the best practice for maintaining this configuration /state? is there a command I can run on new nodes to auto join the cluster? or does this have to be done manually through the web interface?
Thanks in advance!
