How to enable experimental features

SUSE® Rancher Prime Continuous Delivery supports experimental features that are disabled by default and that can be enabled by the user.

Enabling/disabling experimental features is done using extra environment variables that are available when deploying rancher/fleet.

Enabling an experimental feature

Currently, SUSE® Rancher Prime Continuous Delivery has OCI storage as an experimental feature.

Enabling when installing SUSE® Rancher Prime Continuous Delivery stand-alone

When installing SUSE® Rancher Prime Continuous Delivery, pass something similar to the following to your helm install or update command:

--set-string extraEnv[0].name=EXPERIMENTAL_OCI_STORAGE \
--set-string extraEnv[0].value=true \

You must use --set-string, otherwise the boolean value does not work as expected.

Enabling when installing SUSE® Rancher Prime Continuous Delivery with Rancher

--set-string fleet.extraEnv[0].value=true \
