### Binary releases
|
|
|
|
It is allowed to run VictoriaMetrics Enterprise components in [cases listed here](#valid-cases-for-victoriametrics-enterprise).
|
|
|
|
Binary releases of VictoriaMetrics Enterprise are available [at the releases page](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/releases/latest).
|
|
Enterprise binaries and packages have `enterprise` suffix in their names. For example, `victoria-metrics-linux-amd64-v1.106.0-enterprise.tar.gz`.
|
|
|
|
In order to run binary release of VictoriaMetrics Enterprise component, please download the `*-enterprise.tar.gz` archive for your OS and architecture
|
|
from the [releases page](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/releases/latest) and unpack it. Then run the unpacked binary.
|
|
|
|
All the VictoriaMetrics Enterprise components require specifying the following command-line flags:
|
|
|
|
* `-license` - this flag accepts VictoriaMetrics Enterprise license key, which can be obtained at [this page](https://victoriametrics.com/products/enterprise/trial/)
|
|
* `-licenseFile` - this flag accepts a path to file with VictoriaMetrics Enterprise license key,
|
|
which can be obtained at [this page](https://victoriametrics.com/products/enterprise/trial/) . Use either `-license` or `-licenseFile`, but not both.
|
|
* `-licenseFile.reloadInterval` - specifies the interval for checking the license file for updates. The default value is 1 hour. If the license file is updated, the new license key is read from the file.
|
|
* `-license.forceOffline` - enables offline verification of VictoriaMetrics Enterprise license key. Contact us via [this page](https://victoriametrics.com/products/enterprise/)
|
|
if you need license key, which can be verified offline without the need to connect to VictoriaMetrics license server.
|
|
|
|
For example, the following command runs VictoriaMetrics Enterprise binary with the Enterprise license
|
|
obtained at [this page](https://victoriametrics.com/products/enterprise/trial/):
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
wget https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/releases/download/v1.106.0/victoria-metrics-linux-amd64-v1.106.0-enterprise.tar.gz
|
|
tar -xzf victoria-metrics-linux-amd64-v1.106.0-enterprise.tar.gz
|
|
./victoria-metrics-prod -license=BASE64_ENCODED_LICENSE_KEY
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, VictoriaMetrics Enterprise license can be stored in the file and then referred via `-licenseFile` command-line flag:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
./victoria-metrics-prod -licenseFile=/path/to/vm-license
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Docker images
|
|
|
|
It is allowed to run VictoriaMetrics Enterprise components in [cases listed here](#valid-cases-for-victoriametrics-enterprise).
|
|
|
|
Docker images for VictoriaMetrics Enterprise are available [at VictoriaMetrics DockerHub](https://hub.docker.com/u/victoriametrics).
|
|
Enterprise docker images have `enterprise` suffix in their names. For example, `victoriametrics/victoria-metrics:v1.106.0-enterprise`.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
Enterprise license key can be obtained at [this page](https://victoriametrics.com/products/enterprise/trial/).
|
|
|
|
For example, the following command runs VictoriaMetrics Enterprise Docker image with the specified license key:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
docker run --name=victoria-metrics victoriametrics/victoria-metrics:v1.106.0-enterprise -license=BASE64_ENCODED_LICENSE_KEY
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, the license code can be stored in the file and then referred via `-licenseFile` command-line flag:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
docker run --name=victoria-metrics -v /vm-license:/vm-license victoriametrics/victoria-metrics:v1.106.0-enterprise -licenseFile=/path/to/vm-license
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Example docker-compose configuration:
|
|
```yaml
|
|
version: "3.5"
|
|
services:
|
|
victoriametrics:
|
|
container_name: victoriametrics
|
|
image: victoriametrics/victoria-metrics:v1.106.0
|
|
ports:
|
|
- 8428:8428
|
|
volumes:
|
|
- vmdata:/storage
|
|
- /vm-license:/vm-license
|
|
command:
|
|
- "-storageDataPath=/storage"
|
|
- "-licenseFile=/vm-license"
|
|
volumes:
|
|
vmdata: {}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The example assumes that the license file is stored at `/vm-license` on the host.
|
|
|
|
### Helm charts
|
|
|
|
It is allowed to run VictoriaMetrics Enterprise components in [cases listed here](#valid-cases-for-victoriametrics-enterprise).
|
|
|
|
Helm charts for VictoriaMetrics Enterprise components are available [here](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/helm-charts).
|
|
|
|
In order to run VictoriaMetrics Enterprise helm chart it is required to provide the license key via `license` value in `values.yaml` file
|
|
and adjust the image tag to the Enterprise one as described [here](#docker-images).
|
|
|
|
Enterprise license key can be obtained at [this page](https://victoriametrics.com/products/enterprise/trial/).
|
|
|
|
For example, the following `values` file for [VictoriaMetrics single-node chart](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/helm-charts/tree/master/charts/victoria-metrics-single)
|
|
is used to provide key in plain-text:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
server:
|
|
image:
|
|
tag: v1.106.0-enterprise
|
|
|
|
license:
|
|
key: {BASE64_ENCODED_LICENSE_KEY}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
In order to provide key via existing secret, the following values file is used:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
server:
|
|
image:
|
|
tag: v1.106.0-enterprise
|
|
|
|
license:
|
|
secret:
|
|
name: vm-license
|
|
key: license
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Example secret with license key:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
apiVersion: v1
|
|
kind: Secret
|
|
metadata:
|
|
name: vm-license
|
|
type: Opaque
|
|
data:
|
|
license: {BASE64_ENCODED_LICENSE_KEY}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Or create secret via `kubectl`:
|
|
```sh
|
|
kubectl create secret generic vm-license --from-literal=license={BASE64_ENCODED_LICENSE_KEY}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Note that license key provided by using secret is mounted in a file. This allows to perform updates of the license without the need to restart the pod.
|
|
|
|
### Kubernetes operator
|
|
|
|
It is allowed to run VictoriaMetrics Enterprise components in [cases listed here](#valid-cases-for-victoriametrics-enterprise).
|
|
|
|
VictoriaMetrics Enterprise components can be deployed via [VictoriaMetrics operator](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/operator/).
|
|
In order to use Enterprise components it is required to provide the license key via `license` field and adjust the image tag to the enterprise one.
|
|
|
|
Enterprise license key can be obtained at [this page](https://victoriametrics.com/products/enterprise/trial/).
|
|
|
|
For example, the following custom resource for [VictoriaMetrics single-node](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/single-server-victoriametrics/)
|
|
is used to provide key in plain-text:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
apiVersion: operator.victoriametrics.com/v1beta1
|
|
kind: VMSingle
|
|
metadata:
|
|
name: example-vmsingle
|
|
spec:
|
|
retentionPeriod: "1"
|
|
license:
|
|
key: {BASE64_ENCODED_LICENSE_KEY}
|
|
image:
|
|
tag: v1.106.0-enterprise
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
In order to provide key via existing secret, the following custom resource is used:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
apiVersion: operator.victoriametrics.com/v1beta1
|
|
kind: VMSingle
|
|
metadata:
|
|
name: example-vmsingle
|
|
spec:
|
|
retentionPeriod: "1"
|
|
license:
|
|
keyRef:
|
|
name: vm-license
|
|
key: license
|
|
image:
|
|
tag: v1.106.0-enterprise
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Example secret with license key:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
apiVersion: v1
|
|
kind: Secret
|
|
metadata:
|
|
name: vm-license
|
|
type: Opaque
|
|
data:
|
|
license: {BASE64_ENCODED_LICENSE_KEY}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Or create secret via `kubectl`:
|
|
```sh
|
|
kubectl create secret generic vm-license --from-literal=license={BASE64_ENCODED_LICENSE_KEY}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Note that license key provided by using secret is mounted in a file. This allows to perform updates of the license without the need to restart the pod.

|
## Monitoring license expiration
|
|
|
|
All the VictoriaMetrics Enterprise components expose the following metrics at the `/metrics` page:
|
|
|
|
* `vm_license_expires_at` - license expiration date in unix timestamp format
|
|
* `vm_license_expires_in_seconds` - the number of seconds left until the license expires
|
|
|
|
Example alerts for [vmalert](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmalert/) based on these metrics:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
groups:
|
|
- name: vm-license
|
|
# note the `job` label and update accordingly to your setup
|
|
rules:
|
|
- alert: LicenseExpiresInLessThan30Days
|
|
expr: vm_license_expires_in_seconds < 30 * 24 * 3600
|
|
labels:
|
|
severity: warning
|
|
annotations:
|
|
summary: "{{ $labels.job }} instance {{ $labels.instance }} license expires in less than 30 days"
|
|
description: "{{ $labels.instance }} of job {{ $labels.job }} license expires in {{ $value | humanizeDuration }}.
|
|
Please make sure to update the license before it expires."
|
|
|
|
- alert: LicenseExpiresInLessThan7Days
|
|
expr: vm_license_expires_in_seconds < 7 * 24 * 3600
|
|
labels:
|
|
severity: critical
|
|
annotations:
|
|
summary: "{{ $labels.job }} instance {{ $labels.instance }} license expires in less than 7 days"
|
|
description: "{{ $labels.instance }} of job {{ $labels.job }} license expires in {{ $value | humanizeDuration }}.
|
|
Please make sure to update the license before it expires."
|
|
```
|
