This guide provides documentation for Wickr Enterprise. If you're using AWS Wickr, see [AWS Wickr Administration Guide](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/wickr/latest/adminguide/what-is-wickr.html) or [AWS Wickr User Guide](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/wickr/latest/userguide/what-is-wickr.html).

# Installing Wickr Enterprise
<a name="installing"></a>

After your connection to the Kubernetes cluster has been made, you can begin installing Wickr Enterprise using the `kubectl kots` plugin. You will need your KOTS License file (a `.yaml` file provided by Wickr) and your Config Values file, which were saved to the file `wickr-config.json` in the Generate KOTS Config section. For more information about Generate KOTS Config, see [ Generate KOTS Config](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/wickr/latest/wickrenterpriseinstall/getting-started.html#getting-started-generate-kots-config). 

## Installing Wickr Enterprise manually
<a name="installing-wickr-enterprise-manually"></a>

The following command will begin the installation of Wickr Enterprise:

```
kubectl kots install wickr-enterprise-ha \
    --license-file ./license.yaml \
    --config-values ./wickr-config.json  \
    --namespace wickr \
    --skip-preflights
```

You will be prompted to enter a password for the KOTS Admin Console. Save this password because you will need it to upgrade or change the configuration of your Wickr Enterprise installation in the future.

When the installation is complete, `kubectl kots` will open up a local port (usually `http://localhost:8080`), which provides access to the KOTS Admin Console. You can change or monitor the status of your Wickr Enterprise installation on this site, or begin setting up Wickr by visiting the domain name that you configured for your installation in your browser.

## Installing Wickr Enterprise with Lambda

During the CDK deployment, a Lambda is created and invoked to complete the Wickr Enterprise installation on your behalf automatically. To invoke it manually, open the AWS console and find `WickrLambda-func*` lambda function, under test tab, select `test`, the input is irrelevant.
