Install your license key

When deploying an RaaS node, you will need to add your license key to the /etc/raas folder. Once you have added the license key, set ownership of the file to the raas user, as follows.

sudo chown raas:raas /etc/raas/raas.license
sudo chmod 400 /etc/raas/raas.license
sudo systemctl stop raas
sudo systemctl start raas

The license will be read when the RaaS daemon starts updating any node counts, license usage, and feature enablements.
