Splunk UF compatibility with Splunk Cloud

blazingblu — Wed, 27 Sep 2023 20:35:24 GMT

I recently upgraded or rather installed a Splunk UF version 9.1.1 which communicates back to Splunk Cloud but I seem to get an Unsupported error on the console. Is using version 9.1.1. of a forwarder not supported with the below Splunk Cloud?

Version:9.0.2209.3

Build:ec7eaea0bba6

Experience: Victoria

Hi @blazingblu,

I never saw a compatibility error between the last UF version with Splunk Cloud.

Whis is the error?

Anyway, open a case to Splunk Support.

Ciao.

It just states within the console that it's 'unsupported' when viewing the forwarder status. The same as a forwarder of a much lower version would do, because its not been upgraded...

Hi @blazingblu,

I don't think that's relevant and anyway Splunk will upgrade Splunk Cloud soon, so the versions will be aligned.

Only for your better tranquillity, open a case to Splunk Support.

Ciao.
