Deployment Architecture

Has anyone seen search returning different numbers of events after upgrading to 6.6.0?

I upgraded our DMC (Distributed Management Console) to 6.6.0 last week, but everything else in our environment is still 6.5.3.

This search returns different results on the 6.6 DMC than on the 6.5.3 SHC (Search Head Cluster):

index=_* earliest=-2h@h latest=-1h@h
| stats count by index
| sort index

6.6.0:

index       count   
_audit  49747
_internal   16173711
_introspection  67630 

6.5.3:

index       count   
_audit  33771
_internal   7392283
_introspection  47820

Bah, I'm an idiot.

This all cascaded down from the DMC being on 6.6 and the cluster master being on 6.5. I upgraded the CM and that resolved it.
