The current version of the S.o.S app (3.2.1) has not yet been officially certified against Splunk Enterprise 6.3, but we expect to be able to do so in the next few weeks. Please note that:

  • If your environment is running Splunk Enterprise 6.2 or higher, we typically recommend that you leverage the built-in Distributed Management Console to monitor and perform introspection on your Splunk deployment
  • With the DMC having taken over the function of introspection and monitoring, development efforts for the S.o.S app have been all but halted
  • Splunk Enterprise 6.3 is likely to be the last version for which the S.o.S app will be certified

To put it in as small of a number of words as possible: Run DMC!
