I have an indexer host siem2 to collect forwarded logs from Trendmicro Control Manager and it stores it in path /opt/logs/tmcm/

I want to know how to configure in the deployment server host siem1 to search the logs?

Jason,

Your deployment server handles clients, if 'siem2' is an indexer, it accepts data inputs. Therefore, on your indexer, you simply need to add a input for /opt/logs/tmcm/ like below.

::$SPLUNKHOME/etc/system/local/inputs.conf
[monitor:///opt/logs/tmcm]
index=<index of your choice>
#You do not need the whitelist (this is an example below and is commented out)
#If you want to include certain file names from the 'tmcm' directory
#whitelist=(\.log|log$|messages|secure|auth|mesg$|cron$|acpid$|\.out)
disabled = 0
