Upgrade local cluster for ranchers from 2025-04-30 17:00 CEST to 2025-04-30 19:00 CEST

We would like to inform you that the Kubernetes cluster on which the productive Rancher installation of the GWDG runs will be upgraded to a higher version. During this maintenance work, access to Rancher (https://prod.rancher.gwdg.de) may be subject to sporadic outages.

The K8s clusters managed by Rancher are not affected by the upgrade. However, if access to the K8s API is required during this time, we recommend using your own API IP address instead of the proxy option via Rancher.

We apologize for any inconvenience and thank you for your understanding.
