License

Purchase a License

You can evaluate Kommander running two clusters for free. Kommander cluster plus one additional cluster. If you want to add more clusters you need a valid license.

To obtain a valid Kommander license, contact your sales representative at sales@d2iq.com. After purchase, download the license file from the support website using your login credentials to a place accessible by Kommander.

Enter a Valid License Key

After you have downloaded the license, an administrator must add it to Kommander.

In the Kommander UI, do the following:

  1. Select Global in the header drop-down.
  2. Select Administration > Licensing.
  3. Select + Add License.
  4. Paste your license content in and select Add.

If there is an error submitting the license, you can add the license directly through kubectl using the commands in the message within Kommander.

Delete a license

To delete a license from Kommander, you have to delete the Secret and License objects. In this example, the secret is named “the-secret”.

First, validate that the secret exists in the kommander namespace: kubectl describe secret -n kommander the-secret

Expected output:

Name:         the-secret
Namespace:    kommander
Labels:       <none>
Annotations:
Type:         Opaque
Data
====
jwt:  455 bytes

Then, delete the secret from the kommander namespace: kubectl delete secret -n kommander the-secret

Expected output:

secret "the-secret" deleted

Once this is done, we do the same with the License object. First, validate that it exists in the kommander namespace: kubectl describe license -n kommander license-sample

Expected output:

Name:         license-sample
Namespace:    kommander
Labels:       <none>
Annotations:  kubectl.kubernetes.io/last-applied-configuration:
