2025 Minimum General Deployment (MGD) Collector
GD Collector 37.004 has been selected as this year’s MGD. To maintain compatibility, receive the latest enhancements, and meet security standards, all Collectors must be upgraded to version 37.004 or higher before the automatic upgrade begins on October 27, 2025 at 10:00pm PST.
MGD 37.004 includes the enforcement of our Security Mandate for Linux Collectors.
➡️ If your Linux Collectors are still running as the root user, this update will automatically convert them to run as a non-root user to align with industry best practices. No action is needed if you’re already in compliance.
MGD 37.004 Upgrade Schedule
- Now –> Oct 26, 2025: Voluntary upgrade window for GD Collector 37.004
- Sept 22, 2025: GD Collector 37.004 officially designated as Minimum General Deployment (MGD) collector.
- Oct 27, 2025, 10:00 pm PST: Automatic upgrade begins.
If necessary, security patches may be released, and the MGD version will be incremented. We’ll communicate any such changes to ensure transparency and readiness.
