Hi team,

Hope you are doing.
I want to implement a high avaliabilty cluster for kubernetes using rancher.
I’m following this link.

Do i need to create a vip in front of the etcd cluster?
If yes, how does api-server will know about this vip?
Where can i setup this configuration?
Do i need to configure keepalived and other options or these options are granted by default?

I don’t think that answers the OP’s question. In the topology he is proposing he has HA for Etcd separately from the other Control Plane nodes, whereas in that blog Etcd is running on the same nodes.
