Remove a Kommander license

Remove a license

If your license information has changed, you may need to remove an existing license from Kommander to add a new one. Only Kommander administrators have the ability to remove licenses.

NOTE: Original license information can still be obtained from D2iQ or the AWS License Manager console even after removing from Kommander.

In the DKP UI, do the following:

Select Global in the workspace header drop-down.
In the sidebar menu, select Administration > Licensing.
Your existing licenses will be listed. Click Remove License on the license you would like to remove, and follow the prompts.

Manually remove a license using kubectl

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

Validate that the secret exists in the kommander namespace:

kubectl describe secret -n kommander my-license-secret

Expected output:

Name:         my-license-secret
Namespace:    kommander
Labels:       kommanderType=license
Annotations:  <none>

Type:         Opaque

jwt:  455 bytes

Delete the secret from the kommander namespace:

kubectl delete secret -n kommander my-license-secret

Expected output:

secret "my-license-secret" deleted

We do the same with the License object. Validate that it exists in the kommander namespace:

kubectl describe license -n kommander my-license

Expected output:

Name:         my-license
Namespace:    kommander
Labels:       <none>
