DBConnect output to distributed indexers

I am struggling getting the output of my dbx application to send to distributed/load-balanced indexers. I can get output to go to a locally defined index fine, but am unable to get it output to distributed ones.

Can someone provide me with specific configuration to do this please?

Regards,

Hello

You just need to configure your outputs.conf to send data to the indexers, as you would do with a regular universal forwarder

Thank you. It works now. I was not using the listening port, but rather the HTTP port in my outputs.conf.

cheers.
