In parallel, we are setting up Deployment Server (which will have end-points as deployment clients) to use 'Forwarder Management' module and control Splunk configuration files at end-points.</P> <P>However, this deployment server does not have connection to Splunk license master which is hosted externally and with other Splunk components. </P> <P>What license will work at this standalone deployment server without any connection to Splunk license master? Can we use Enterprise Trial version or Forwarding license or Non-production license? </P> <P>Thanks!</P> Fri, 13 Oct 2017 01:25:44 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/All-Apps-and-Add-ons/License-at-Deployment-Server-with-no-connection-to-license/m-p/296420#M35406 pranitprakash 2017-10-13T01:25:44Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/All-Apps-and-Add-ons/License-at-Deployment-Server-with-no-connection-to-license/m-p/296421#M35407 <P>The best option would be to make Deployment Server as a license slave and connect to the license master.

As we can not use License master connection in our scenario. Does Splunk Enterprise License suffice our requirements or any other way which helps?</P> Mon, 16 Oct 2017 08:51:06 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/All-Apps-and-Add-ons/License-at-Deployment-Server-with-no-connection-to-license/m-p/296422#M35408 sushma_vibhuti 2017-10-16T08:51:06Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/All-Apps-and-Add-ons/License-at-Deployment-Server-with-no-connection-to-license/m-p/296423#M35409 <P>Do we know if any of these two options are possible: <BR /> a. Getting non-prod license from Splunk to be used for Deployment server,<BR /> b. Getting a cut of zero-byte license from Enterprise license key for deployment server, so that the enterprise features are enabled but no indexing can be done locally. </P> <P>Thanks!</P> Mon, 16 Oct 2017 23:25:21 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/All-Apps-and-Add-ons/License-at-Deployment-Server-with-no-connection-to-license/m-p/296423#M35409 pranitprakash 2017-10-16T23:25:21Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/All-Apps-and-Add-ons/License-at-Deployment-Server-with-no-connection-to-license/m-p/296424#M35410 <P>Answering an older question, however for your information you can request a 0MB license when it is required from Splunk support.</P> Tue, 28 Nov 2017 02:23:23 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/All-Apps-and-Add-ons/License-at-Deployment-Server-with-no-connection-to-license/m-p/296424#M35410 gjanders 2017-11-28T02:23:23Z
