To deploy and use Pachyderm's Enterprise Edition, you simply need to follow one of our guides to deploy Pachyderm and then activate the Enterprise Edition.
Note - Pachyderm's Enterprise dashboard is now deployed by default with Pachyderm. If you wish to deploy without the dashboard please use pachctl deploy [command] --no-dashboard
Note - You can get a FREE evaluation token for the enterprise edition on the landing page of the Enterprise dashboard.
There are two ways to activate Pachyderm's enterprise features::
For either method, you will need to have your Pachyderm Enterprise activation code available. You should have received this from Pachyderm sales/support when registering for the Enterprise Edition. If you are a new user evaluating Pachyderm, you can receive a FREE evaluation code on the landing page of the dashboard. Please contact support@pachyderm.io if you are having trouble locating your activation code.
Assuming you followed one of our deploy guides and you have a Pachyderm cluster running, you should see that the state of your Pachyderm cluster is similar to the following:
$ kubectl get pods
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
dash-6c9dc97d9c-vb972 2/2 Running 0 6m
etcd-7dbb489f44-9v5jj 1/1 Running 0 6m
pachd-6c878bbc4c-f2h2c 1/1 Running 0 6m
You should also be able to connect to the Pachyderm cluster via the pachctl
CLI:
$ pachctl version
COMPONENT VERSION
pachctl 1.6.8
pachd 1.6.8
Activating the Enterprise features of Pachyderm is then as easy as:
$ pachctl enterprise activate <activation-code>
If this command returns no error, then the activation was successful. The state of the Enterprise activation can also be retrieved at any time via:
$ pachctl enterprise get-state
ACTIVE
Assuming that you have a running Pachyderm cluster and you have deployed the Pachyderm Enterprise dashboard using this guide, you should be able to visit <pachyderm host IP>:30080
(e.g., localhost:30080
when you are using pachctl port-forward
) to see the dashboard. When you first visit the dashboard, it will prompt you for your activation code:
Once you enter your activation code, you should have full access to the Enterprise dashboard and your cluster will be an active Enterprise Edition cluster. This could be confirmed with:
$ pachctl enterprise get-state
ACTIVE
