[Q] Skyline Integration with Check Point MDS

[jerinmathew]

Version:

cpinfo -y all

This is Check Point CPinfo Build 914000248 for GAIA
[MGMT]
HOTFIX_R81_20_JUMBO_HF_MAIN Take: 76

We have onboarded all our firewalls and non MDS mangers to Prometheus/Grafana. But we are not sure how to onboard MDS managers.

CPotelcol package seems to be missing even though the directory exist. Is the process to integrate MDS different? 

Or do I just need to manually install Check_Point_CPotelcol_AutoUpdate_Bundle_T192_AutoUpdate.tar?

Hi @jerinmathew  - If the system has the required version and JHF - you can manually install the relevant packages - for more details please review the relevant sk and admin guide.

Any idea why this is happening?
