Scientific Linux support was rolled into the agent code last year: https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf?p=incubator-cloudstack.git;a=commitdiff;h=a2493b5852d6e2a47ed7b8a61b2d5756d969f23b Centos and SL both aim for binary compatibility with RHEL, so short of any basic version checking code snippet, the RPMS should be identical across any 6.2/6.3 build. - Si <snip>
