Alternatively, you can use Rancher to create a cluster from your own existing nodes, using RKE. RKE is Rancher’s own lightweight K8s installer. It works with any bare metal server, cloud provider, or virtualization platform. It integrates with node drivers to automatically provision nodes on AWS, Azure, DigitalOcean, vSphere, OpenStack, etc. Users can add custom nodes to the cluster by running the Rancher agent on these nodes.

## Custom Nodes
Use Rancher to create a Kubernetes cluster on your on-premise bare metal servers. This option creates a cluster using RKE, which is Rancher's own lightweight Kubernetes installer. In addition to bare metal servers, RKE can also create clusters on _any_ IaaS providers by integrating with node drivers.
To use this option you'll need access to servers you intend to use as your Kubernetes cluster. Provision each server according to Rancher requirements, which includes some hardware specifications and Docker. After you install Docker on each server, run the command provided in the Rancher UI to turn each server into a Kubernetes node.
You can create provider-hosted nodes from the Rancher UI by creating a node template. After providing Rancher with an access token from the vendor you're using, Rancher prompts you for specifications that it will send to your provider by API. The provider than provisions your nodes based on the template.
