Updating a license
CSM Operator requires a valid license to function. You must update expired licenses, otherwise, cluster resources will break down over time.
You register your initial license during installation by setting the
clouderaLicense.fileContent
Helm chart property. When this
property is set, a Kubernetes secret is automatically generated that stores your
license. The name of the secret is csm-op-license
.
If the license expires, it must be updated. You update the license by updating the
secret that stores the license with your new license. Specifically, you update the
value of the data.license
property in the secret with your new
license.
Licenses can be updated at any point in time. If your license is already expired and you update your license, restrictions on functionality are lifted immediately after the license is updated.
Updating a license does not carry any risks and does not result in cluster downtime.
