License Duplicate

[ahmedhassanean]

Dears,

i have scenario where i have three nodes
node one master and indexer and searh head
node two indexer and search head
node three heavy forwarder

all three node are configure as license slave for node 1

now i have configure node three heavy forwarder to forwardandindex locally then send data to node one and two
but in license i can see that license count double is that normal

?

Yes it's normal because you index twice your logs, it's the same thing to send logs to two different Indexers without autoloadbalancing.
To not duplicate license consuption the onlu way is not index locally and use remote indexed events also For local search.
Bye.
