New Cluster API Provider for deploying RKE2 Clusters!
2 projects | /r/kubernetes | 2 Mar 2023

Well, difficult to answer the question seriously. Cluster API aims at provisioning and managing the lifecycle of clusters. If you want to manage manually deployed clusters, it might be feasable using BringYourOwnHost infrastructure provider in collaboration with our RKE2 provider, and it might work to upgrade the cluster (?). It is definitely something to check.
