How to restart multiple/single universal forwarders from Deployment server?

I have a deployment server and all our Universal forwarders are put in a serverclass to push the updates/apps. I want to know how to restart multiple UF from deployment server. Thanks.

You can create an app with dummy content and then click the "restart" checkmark on it. Then selectively deploy this app to particular forwarders and when it is deployed, the Splunk instance on each deployed forwarder will be restarted.
