About this task
The Trident installer catalog is installed as part of the Rancher installation using NetApp Hybrid Cloud Control.
In this task, you use the installer catalog to install and configure Trident.
As part of the Rancher installation, NetApp provides a node template. If you are not planning to use the node
template that NetApp provides, and you want to provision on RHEL or CentOS, there might be additional
requirements. If you change your worker node to RHEL or CentOS, there are several prerequisites that should
be met. See the Trident documentation.
Steps
1. From the Rancher UI, select a project for your user cluster.
For information about projects and namespaces, see the Rancher documentation.
2. Select Apps, and select Launch.
3. On the Catalog page, select the Trident installer.
On the page that opens, you can select the Detailed Descriptions arrow to learn more
about the Trident app and also to find the link to the Trident documentation.
4. Select the Configurations Options arrow, and enter the credentials and storage configuration information.
