This topic describes how to:

Accept the End User License Agreements

Before downloading and installing Tanzu Application Platform packages, you must accept the End User License Agreements (EULAs) as follows:

  1. Sign in to VMware Tanzu Network.

  2. Accept or confirm that you have accepted the EULAs for each of the following:

Example of accepting the Tanzu Application Platform EULA

To accept the Tanzu Application Platform EULA:

  1. Go to Tanzu Application Platform.

  2. Select the Click here to sign the EULA link in the yellow warning box under the release drop-down menu. If the yellow warning box is not visible, the EULA has already been accepted.

Set the Kubernetes cluster context

To set the Kubernetes cluster context:

  1. List the existing contexts by running:

    kubectl config get-contexts

    For example:

    $ kubectl config get-contexts
CURRENT   NAME                                CLUSTER           AUTHINFO                                NAMESPACE
        aks-repo-trial                      aks-repo-trial    clusterUser_aks-rg-01_aks-repo-trial
*       aks-tap-cluster                     aks-tap-cluster   clusterUser_aks-rg-01_aks-tap-cluster

  2. Set the context to the cluster that you want to use for the Tanzu Application Platform packages installation by running:

    kubectl config use-context CONTEXT

    Where CONTEXT is the cluster that you want to use. For example, aks-tap-cluster.

    For example:

    $ kubectl config use-context aks-tap-cluster
Switched to context "aks-tap-cluster".
