splunk version

Splunk Universal Forwarder 6.0.1 (build 189883)

This is after a recent upgrade of all the forwarders to 6.0.1

Any ideas?

The asset table holding details such as the splunk version of forwarder instances is only refreshed once per day. If your forwarder was upgraded in the last 24h, that might explain why S.o.S doesn't show an up to date version for it yet.
