Cause


A Collector Group push from the Panorama to the upgraded Log-Collector is required for the ElasticSearch process to run.

Additional Information


A Collector Group push kicks off a script on the Log-Collector to set the sdb variable required by masterd to detect that ElasticSearch needs to be run.
