VM Runtime on GDC is released for General Availability (GA) with the
release of Google Distributed Cloud version 1.12.0. All earlier releases of
VM Runtime on GDC are in Preview.
You can't upgrade from a Preview version to the GA version without first
deleting your VMs and disabling VM Runtime on GDC. Once you've upgraded
your clusters, then you can enable VM Runtime on GDC again and recreate
your VMs.
To upgrade from a pre-GA version of VM Runtime on GDC:
Delete all VMs and their resources from the cluster.
You can't skip minor versions when upgrading your Google Distributed Cloud.
For example, if you have a version 1.10 cluster, you must first upgrade to
version 1.11 before you can upgrade to version 1.12.0 or higher. For more
information, see Upgrade clusters.
Due to changes in the VM schema for the GA release of
VM Runtime on GDC, you must recreate your VMs. For use with
VM Runtime on GDC on version 1.12.0 or higher clusters.
