Hello @Srihari999

The CDP Private Cloud Base Edition Trial is a free 60-day trial that does not require a license file. When the 60-day trial period expires, you will no longer be able to access the Cloudera Manager Admin console to manage your clusters until you upload a valid license. However, your clusters will continue to function, your data will remain intact, and your jobs will keep running.
You can obtain a CDP Private Cloud Base license to regain access to the Admin Console. To obtain a CDP Private Cloud Base license, fill in the Contact Us form or call 866-843-7207.
You can use a trial license only once; when the 60-day trial period expires or you have ended the trial, you cannot restart the trial.
For more details, kindly refer the product documentation.
