- Minimum Required SL1 Version: 10.1.0
Before You Install or Upgrade
Ensure that you are running version 10.1.0 or later of SL1 before installing "Google Cloud Platform" PowerPack version 104.
For details on upgrading SL1, see the relevant SL1 Platform Release Notes.
Installation or Upgrade Process
To install version 104 of the Google Cloud Platform PowerPack, perform the following steps:
ScienceLogic does not recommend using version 101 of the PowerPack because of installation and collection issues which can arise in some system configurations. When upgrading from version 100 to later versions, ScienceLogic recommends that you delete your previously discovered Google Cloud devices as well as version 100 of the PowerPack, and then install version 101 or later. This is because the collections and devices present in version 100 are not compatible with later releases.
