38% of CISOs Fear They’re Not Moving Fast Enough on AI
CISOs are racing to adopt AI for cybersecurity, but hurdles in budgets and governance may leave some falling behind in the fight against cyber threats.
Elasticsearch Version Manager is a command line application used for development to manage different versions of Elasticsearch. It should not be used in production since it's probably a bad idea to wrap a process with Node.js. But nevertheless it's extremely useful if you need to develop against multiple versions of Elasticsearch (I'm looking at you Kibana team).
npm install esvm -g
Usage: esvm [options] <version>
Options:
-h, --help output usage information
-V, --version output the version number
-p, --purge purge the data directory
-f, --fresh preform a fresh install
-b, --branch install from a branch release
-n, --nodes <n> the number of nodes to start
-c, --config <file> the config file to use
-l, --list list clusters in the config file
--cluster-name <name> the cluster name to use
Note: <version>
can either be a semver expression of a named cluster (which is found in the configuration).
esvm will look for an .esvmrc file in the current working directory. If it doesn't find one there it will continue to walk up the directory tree until it does. There are two main sections for the configuration file:
defaults
- The defaults to apply to every instanceclusters
- The named clustersBoth the defaults and named clusters will take the following options:
Option | Description |
---|---|
version | The semver statment for the released version of Elasticsearch to install. Will override branch and binary options, and install the latest version by default |
branch | The nightly branch to install |
binary | The path to the tarball to use. This can either be URL or file path. |
directory | The directory where everything is installed. If the directory doesn't exist it will be created. (Default: ~/.esvm) |
plugins | The plugins to install. This should be an array of plugin install directives. |
purge | Purge the data directory when starting the server (Default: false). |
fresh | Remove the current copy before installing a new copy (Default: false). |
nodes | The number of nodes to start. This can either be a number or an array of config objects (Default: 1) |
config | The config to start the server with. |
shield | Configuration settings for Shield. Check the examples for help |
