Arista splunk forwarder send telemetry to multiple destination servers

With a configuration like the one below. It appears as if the splunk forwarder is essentially load balancing telemetry logs, ie, randomly sending telemetry enties to either Splunk server, but not both. (The servers are independent) Is it possible to have a configuration like the one below send telemetry to both servers. If not, then what would be the best way to end up with a full set of telemetry on both servers?

splunk-forwarder
splunk-server 1.1.1.1 port 9997
splunk-server 2.2.2.2 port 9997
index inventory
index sflow
index topology
index interface-counters
index syslog
vrf MGMT
http-commands protocol socket
