1. Edit the values.yaml file to specify that the license file is contained in hivemq-license secret, which will be mounted to the directory /opt/hivemq/license

   Code Block
   language yaml
   hivemq: ... secrets: # Secrets to mount to the HiveMQ pods. These can be mounted to existing directories without shadowing the folder contents as well. - name: hivemq-license path: /opt/hivemq/license ...

2. If there is no namespace for the HiveMQ, then create one and switch the kubectl context to it

   Code Block
   language bash
   kubectl create ns hivemq kubectl ns hivemq

3. Create the secret with nave hivemq-license in the namespace hivemq from the license file hivemq-2023.lic

   Code Block
   language bash
   kubectl create secret generic hivemq-license \ --from-file hivemq-license.lic \ --namespace hivemq

4. Install HiveMQ with the release name hivemq-mine from the Helm chart hivemq-operator to the namespace hivemq and use parameter values from the file values.yaml

   Code Block
   language bash
   helm upgrade hivemq-mine \ --install hivemq/hivemq-operator \ --namespace hivemq\ --values values.yaml
