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.

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"}.

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.

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.

For 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
1628
container images in air-gapped environments.
