Rancher Cluster Deployment

You can deploy Rancher in following two steps:
  1. Prepare a Linux host with supported Linux distribution and 4GB of memory. Install a supported version of Docker on the host.
  2. Start the server.
    To install and run Rancher, run the following Docker command on your host:
    $ sudo docker run --privileged -d --restart=unless-stopped -p 80:80 -p 443:443 rancher/rancher
After a successful deployment, you can access Rancher server UI and set up a password for the admin user. To access the Rancher server UI, open a browser and go to the hostname or address where the container was installed. You will be guided through setting up your first cluster.
Following the creation of the admin user, a local cluster will be created as shown below:
