geneos package Subsystem Commands
The geneos package commands help you manage ITRS Geneos software
releases.
To download and unarchive releases use geneos package install. You can
also install releases from files you have already downloaded.
Use geneos package list to show installed versions and which are
linked to which base names (symlinks like active_prod).
The geneos package update command allows you to select which installed
releases to link to which base names and to create new base names.
Finally use geneos package uninstall to remove installed packages.
For those commands that use them, VERSION options are based on the
ITRS Geneos release versioning which is now semantic versioning but
older versions will have GA and RA prefixes:
[GA]X.Y.Z
Where X, Y, Z are each ordered in ascending numerical order. If a
directory starts GA it will be selected over a directory with the same
numerical versions. All other directories name formats will result in
unexpected behaviour. If multiple installed versions match then the
lexically latest match will be used. The chosen match may be much higher
than that given on the command line as only installed packages are used
in the search.
