Deployment Architecture

Is there a way to see what serverclass and apps a host is associated with?

Hi,

Is there a way (preferably via REST) to see what deploymentserver classes and apps a specific host is associated with? I know that you can go into the deploymentserver directly and get this info, but I'm trying to avoid that situation.

Yes there is, take a look at http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/6.1.2/RESTAPI/RESTdeploy#deployment.2Fserver.2Fclients

I don't use the REST directly, but the SDK's can help, I use the python one almost daily.

Thanks. I'm trying to run this from a centralized server, not the server where the forwarder is already running. It looks like if I try ../services/deployment/server/clients it lists all clients. I don't see any way to specify a specific forwarder. Does that exist?

You would run this against your deployment server.

   curl -k -u admin:pass https://<deliver server>:8089/services/deployment/server/clients

There will be multiple entries, each will have a s:key name="hostname", s:key name="wma-app-test2".

You'll also get the UUID of the server, as the title, and you can call /services/deployment/server/clients/ to get info about a single machine.

ok. Thanks. Obviously this is workable, but it's disappointing that you can't just pass a forwarder name.
