Standalone OpenSearch plugin installation
If you don’t want to use the all-in-one OpenSearch installation options, you can install the individual plugins on a compatible OpenSearch cluster, just like any other plugin.

To install plugins manually, you must have the exact version of OpenSearch installed, down to the minor version.
List installed plugins
To check your installed plugins:
sudo bin/opensearch-plugin list
Remove plugins
If you are removing Performance Analyzer, see below. Otherwise, you can remove the plugin with a single command:
sudo bin/opensearch-plugin remove <plugin-name>
Then restart OpenSearch on the node:
sudo systemctl restart opensearch.service
Update plugins
OpenSearch doesn’t update plugins. Instead, you have to remove and reinstall them:
sudo bin/opensearch-plugin remove <plugin-name>
sudo bin/opensearch-plugin install <plugin-name>
