How to enable experimental features

Fleet 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.

See also "Configure Fleet Install Options in Rancher".

Available experimental features

Fleet currently supports the following experimental features:

• Scheduling: EXPERIMENTAL_SCHEDULES

Enabling an experimental feature

Enabling when installing Fleet stand-alone

All you need to do is to pass something like:

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

to your helm install or update command.

Please note you have to use --set-string because otherwise the boolean value won't work as expected.

Enabling when installing Fleet with Rancher

You can also activate the experimental features in Fleet when installing Rancher.

The parameters are the same, but you have to add the fleet. prefix.

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