Deployment Architecture

Issues deploying initial shcluster apps from deployer

I'm having an issue deploying my first bundle of shcluster apps. I have all untarred apps in /opt/splunk/etc/shcluster, permissions are correct, all SH cluster members are configured with my deployers IP.

Everytime I run the "splunk apply shcluster-bundle -target https://172.16.31.36:8089 -auth admin:password

I get the following error

"Error while deploying apps to first member: Found zero deployable apps to send; /opt/splunk/etc/shcluster is likely empty; ensure that the command is being run on the deployer. If intentionally attempting to remove all apps from the search head cluster use the "force" option. WARNING: using this option with an empty shcluster directory will delete all apps previously deployed to the search head cluster; use with extreme caution!"

I haven't been able to find ANYTHING on this error. Any help would be great

Jeeze....
I was under the impression from docs that it went in the root of /shcluster dir.

Thanks adonio!

Hi,

All untarred app should be in /opt/splunk/etc/shcluster/apps/ directory.

Thanks,
