Licence
Your site runs on a signed licence file from RigFabTech, rigfab.license. This page shows how to install it and what
people see when it ends.
The licence agent in the base chart checks the licence in your cluster, without reaching RigFabTech. Every product checks it again itself.
Install a licence file
rft license install rigfab.licenserft checks the file against RigFabTech's keys and shows the licence's term and apps. It then adds the licence to
Secret rft-system/rft-license, beside the licences already there. The base chart copies it to every product.
You can name several files at once.
Install a renewal as soon as it arrives. The newest licence in force wins, so the renewal takes over when its term starts. A connected site also gets renewed licences from its daily check-in with the licence service.
When a licence ends
For each app:
| When | What people see |
|---|---|
| 60 days before the end | A banner for administrators |
| 30 days before the end | A banner for everyone |
| After the end, for the licence's grace days | A banner for everyone; the app still works |
| After the grace | The app is read-only: people sign in, read and export, but can't change anything |
A version of an app released after your licence's updates ended also runs read-only.
Nothing stops running. Installing a licence that covers the app makes it writable again within two minutes.
Missed check-ins
A missed check-in never turns an app read-only. After 7 days without one, administrators see a banner.
