Deployment Architecture

Deployment Server .conf changes

Hello,
I am trying to set up a deployment server in splunk. I'm only testing on one server at the moment just to see how this works. What I am trying to do is change a .conf file in a universal forwarder.

The deployment server and universal forwarder client both are windows server 2008.
I added the .conf file to the repository but I don't know how to make it go to the
path C:\Program Files\SplunkUniversalForwarder\etc\system\local path.
Its a simple .conf file that tells what wmi information to collect.

Thank you very much in advance.
Brent.

Does splunkforwarder service account has full right on his installation folder and subfolder?

What your serverclass.conf looks like?
