According to this documentation -

[Manage licenses in ECK | Elastic Cloud on Kubernetes [2.4] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/cloud-on-k8s/current/k8s-licensing.html)

> The [`_license`](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/get-license.html) API reports that individual Elasticsearch clusters are running under an Enterprise license, and the [elastic-licensing](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/cloud-on-k8s/current/k8s-licensing.html#k8s-get-usage-data) ConfigMap contains the current license level of the ECK operator.

So, say I have 3 Elasticsearch clusters managed by ECK in an AKS cluster.

Talking about validation, can we **solely rely** on the [elastic-licensing](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/cloud-on-k8s/current/k8s-licensing.html#k8s-get-usage-data) ConfigMap ? If the configmap json says **"eck\_license\_level": "enterprise",** can I be 100% sure that all the elasticsearch clusters are running with enterprise license?

or do I **HAVE** to call the **\_license API** of each elasticsearch clusters to be sure?
