Hi! I have a deployment server in my architecture. my data summary would only index 270 events when i turned the client on and then nothing else. i spent the last week trying to figure out why i wasnt getting data, finally i query the search and report app and apparently data has been flowing the whole time, just not showing up in the data summary. is this normal because i have a deployment server? below is my inputs.conf. it is store in C:\Program Files\Splunk\etc\deployment-apps\Splunk_TA_Windows\local
