Forget the previously installed tools

To see what version of Tools is currently installed:
pkgutil --pkgs | grep 'aerospike.tools'
Run the following command to forget the previous installations (where x.y.z
is the current version):
sudo pkgutil --forget com.aerospike.tools.x.y.z
Install Aerospike Tools
Install the downloaded package by double-clicking the package file and following the prompts.
Verify
Verify the package installation:
pkgutil --pkgs | grep 'aerospike.tools'

If security is enabled for your Aerospike cluster, provide the username and password each time you verify one of the tools.
