DIY deployment guides
This page collects manual deployment references for system administrators who must provision or customize the container environment themselves.

Most users should not follow the DIY guides. Use the setup wizard at Get Gluesync; it provides the correct kit and automates the standard installation flow. |
When to follow the DIY path
Continue only if:
-
Your organization mandates manual validation of each package and configuration step.
-
You need to adapt Gluesync to pre-existing Docker, Podman, or Kubernetes baselines.
-
Internet access to MOLO17 repositories is filtered and you must stage artifacts internally before rolling out Gluesync.
-
Your operations team accepts responsibility for runtime security, upgrades, storage, networking, and recovery.
Manual reference guides
-
Offline installation and updates – install and update Gluesync in air-gapped environments using pre-downloaded platform archives and update packages.
-
Prepare Docker manually – Docker host requirements and administrator-controlled setup for Linux, macOS, and Windows Server.
-
Install Podman – distro-specific Podman and podman-compose instructions, including rootless operation hints.
-
Deploy with Docker Compose manually – how to review, customize, validate, and operate the Compose stack supplied by the setup wizard.
-
Kubernetes deployment – describes the Helm charts, manifests, and tuning options for cluster administrators.

The DIY guides still assume that you obtained a current Gluesync kit through the Get Gluesync setup wizard. Use the kit’s helper scripts ( |
