tools directory removes older
releases of the installed product from the installation directory. Over
time, as tpm update the configuration or new releases of
the product, new directories with the full release information are created,
but old ones are not removed in case you need to go back to a previous
release.
The clean_release_directory command removes all but the five most recent installs and the current release. For example, with the following directory:
