Loading Images to a Registry

This page will walk you through seeding your registry with downloaded images from the CSR for all Rancher components.

This demonstration will be using hauler, but any tool with the ability to push/pull an oci image will be adequate.

This assumes you've followed the downloading images section and that you've transferred your tarballs to your airgapped environment.
