To improve security, Ubuntu node images in GKE version 1.37 and later don't pre-install the vulkan-tools package.


To improve security, Ubuntu node images in GKE version 1.37 and later don't pre-install the vulkan-tools package. If you run Vulkan diagnostic tools (such as vulkaninfo) directly on GKE Ubuntu hosts, then you must manually install the vulkan-tools package. This change doesn't affect containerized GPU/Vulkan workloads.
