Distribute configuration files across nodes in indexer cluster

[rajeev_ku]

I Have a PoC environment consist - indexer cluster, SHC, deployment server, forwarder.

I have to deploy configuration files across indexer, any sort and simple way to configure.

Thanks

You can distribute apps/configuration files to your indexers using Cluster Master. Put the required apps under $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/master-apps on the cluster master and apply cluster bundle to push the apps to all the peers.

Thanks a lot.

If you have an indexer cluster, you also need to have a cluster master. Indexer peer nodes get their configuration from the cluster master. This documented here.

Yes, i have deployed master server as well.
