Adding an Execution Worker License to an On-premises DMP installation

When the Xpress Insight Server component is enabled, the Execution Workers apply a Community (free) license that limits the size of the optimization that can be performed. Capacity is enabled when a license is installed. Each DMP lifecycle stage (such as Design, Staging, and Production) has a different namespace. Installing a license will enable all Xpress components (including Execution Workers, Workbench, and Insight) in that target namespace-a license is required for each namespace.

You must be an administrator for your Kubernetes system to complete this task.

Perform the following steps to de-restrict the Execution Workers:
  1. Obtain a license file — Speak to your FICO representative.
  2. Create a secret in the desired Kubernetes namespace.
    1. Navigate to the directory containing the xpauth.xpr file and open a Command window.
    2. Run the following command while in the directory containing the file, replacing <namespace-value> with the destination namespace for the secret: 
      kubectl --namespace=<namespace-value> create secret generic xpress-license-file --from-file=license-file=./xpauth.xpr
  3. Restart any component that needs to pick up the license change.
    The licence is applied to all Xpress components installed in the specified namespace.

Repeat the process for each namespace (and corresponding DMP lifecycle stage) that you wish to license.
