I'd scrutinize your input definitions, specifically any one of them that mentions powershell. If the scripted input isn't working, you can disable for the moment in order to avoid the error message (or otherwise figure out why it's failing).</P> <P>Please let me know if this helps!</P> Tue, 01 Mar 2016 21:00:37 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Deployment-Architecture/Why-are-we-seeing-search-peer-error-quot-A-script-exited/m-p/229276#M8572 muebel 2016-03-01T21:00:37Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Deployment-Architecture/Why-are-we-seeing-search-peer-error-quot-A-script-exited/m-p/229277#M8573 <P>i have the same problem, did you fixed this already or is it resolved in further updates from ESS?</P> Wed, 20 Apr 2016 07:45:26 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Deployment-Architecture/Why-are-we-seeing-search-peer-error-quot-A-script-exited/m-p/229277#M8573 Fraankiiie 2016-04-20T07:45:26Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Deployment-Architecture/Why-are-we-seeing-search-peer-error-quot-A-script-exited/m-p/229278#M8574 <P>I'm still getting the error and am considering upgrading to the new 4.1 version of ESS. </P> Wed, 20 Apr 2016 12:04:41 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Deployment-Architecture/Why-are-we-seeing-search-peer-error-quot-A-script-exited/m-p/229278#M8574 jsbollard 2016-04-20T12:04:41Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Deployment-Architecture/Why-are-we-seeing-search-peer-error-quot-A-script-exited/m-p/229279#M8575 <P>Appears it is a known issue if you have a look at this answer page, and for the moment just follow the answer posted to suppress it:</P> <P><A href="https://answers.splunk.com/answers/313159/after-upgrading-my-indexer-and-search-head-to-splu.html">https://answers.splunk.com/answers/313159/after-upgrading-my-indexer-and-search-head-to-splu.html</A></P> Tue, 13 Sep 2016 23:14:49 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Deployment-Architecture/Why-are-we-seeing-search-peer-error-quot-A-script-exited/m-p/229279#M8575 maclel 2016-09-13T23:14:49Z
