Nit: I see that only the last line that is different between SLES 16 and previous version - I would prefer have "if [[ "$SUSE_VERSION" == 16 ]]; then" around the last line here

Does metrics work for Cassandra?
Asking as we only support Cassandra 3.11 and 4.0 - and those only run with Java 8 and 11. If neither 8 or 11 is available on SLES 16, we can skip it saying the JRE is missing - so that we don't need to look into them later until we add support for new Cassandra versions.

Seems like DCGM is not yet supporting SLES 16 - I think we can skip

We probably should revert the change to the install script if elasticsearch (the 7.9 version) is being skipped

I would also suggest revert this section - I think this was needed to make installation work but since we are skipping this app, we might remove this for now so that later it would be easier to see why the installation fail?

NVML (and DCGM) uses a inclusive list (gpu_platforms:) to indicate which distro to support.

We can revert this change here and skip nvml for now - created b/504682613 to track sles 16 - will need to upgrade the installation script to install CUDA 13.2 first.
