Hi to all, I need to install UF on several linux hosts in order to monitor them.
Do I need to access on each single host andbto install the UF as indicated here https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Forwarder/6.6.1/Forwarder/Installanixuniversalforwarder or there is some way to install directly by the deployment server?
Thaks,
Andrea
