7- Simplyblock can be installed in an air-gapped environment. However, the necessary images must be downloaded to
8- install and run the control plane, the storage nodes, and the Kubernetes CSI driver. In addition, for Kubernetes
9- deployments, you want to download or clone the
10- [ simplyblock helm repository] ( https://github.com/simplyblock-io/simplyblock-csi ) {: target ="_ blank" rel="noopener"} which contains the helm charts for
11- Kubernetes-based storage and caching nodes, as well as the Kubernetes CSI driver.
7+ Simplyblock can be installed in an air-gapped Kubernetes environment. The recommended entry point is the
8+ ` simplyblock-io/helm-deployer ` image, which includes the required deployment tooling.
9+
10+ This deployer image, together with all other required simplyblock images, is available from the
11+ [ simplyblock-io organization on Quay] ( https://quay.io/organization/simplyblock-io ) {: target ="_ blank" rel="noopener"}.
12+
13+ This repository contains all required images. Synchronizing this repository with your local container repository
14+ retrieves all required images by simplyblock to install control planes, storage planes, and the CSI driver.
15+
16+ How the container repository is synchronized with your local container repository depends on the solution used and is
17+ outside the scope of this documentation. Please refer to the documentation for your local container repository for
18+ more information.
19+
20+ The general installation instructions are similar to non-air-gapped installations, with the need to update the
21+ container download locations to point to your local container repository.

1325For an air-gapped installation, we recommend an air-gapped container repository installation. Tools such as
1426[ JFrog Artifactory] ( https://jfrog.com/artifactory/ ) {: target ="_ blank" rel="noopener"} or
1527[ Sonatype Nexus] ( https://www.sonatype.com/products/sonatype-nexus-repository ) {: target ="_ blank" rel="noopener"} help with the setup and management of
