Hi Team,

I´m trying to setup a private registry to use in my cluster.  
I just want to use my private registry to use with my applications.  
The problem is that i perform cluster provisioning it takes resources (images )from my registry  
Do i need to upload all rancher images and dependencies to my private registry.  
I was able to change the docker command to use docker hub but there is other images needed during provisioning.  
Thanks in advance

You don’t need to configure the registry in the rancher control plane.  
Instead in your deployments reference the images with the full path /image…  
and add a docker-secret as image-pull-secret.

Exactly. This feature confused me before in the exact same way. I expected to be able to pull private images from there, but rancher wants to pull all its components from there.

Using pull-secrets is the way to go.
