Compute Engine
Feature
Preview: VM Extension Manager lets you manage Compute Engine guest agent extensions on your virtual machines (VMs). You can use VM Extension Manager to install and manage extensions, such as Ops Agent and Agent for SAP, on your Compute Engine VMs at scale, without connecting to each VM.
Use VM Extension Manager to create policies that install extensions on your VMs. You can install extensions based on a specific criteria, such as VM labels, for both existing and new VMs that match the criteria. VM Extension Manager automates the lifecycle of extensions across your entire fleet of VMs and monitors their health status while they are running.

ignored, and this configuration setting has been removed from the
Google Cloud console. For more information, see
Worker (primary) subnet.
Deprecated
The additionalSubnets field in the
ConnectNetworkConfig
REST API resource is deprecated. Connect cluster workers can reach any endpoint
that is accessible from primarySubnet subnetwork.
