Acquire Smart Karpenter License with Rancher on Linode

The following are the steps to acquire a Smart Karpenter with Rancher license.

1. Contact Avesha Sales at sales@avesha.io to obtain a Smart Karpenter license.

2. License options:

   • A trial license is available for evaluation purposes and is valid for a limited time.
   • For production deployments, a commercial license must be purchased.

3. Retrieve the cluster ID (for Rancher on Linode) using the following command:

   kubectl get namespace kube-system -o jsonpath='{.metadata.uid}'

4. To set resource limits, specify the maximum number of vCPUs that Smart Karpenter is allowed to provision in the cluster.

You will need to provide the cluster ID for each cluster you intend to license. Avesha issues a license on per-cluster basis. After processing your request, Avesha shares the license details with you.
