Hi ,

I'm currently engaged with a customer to deploy splunk components on their infrastructure. This seems to be a distributed environment. Please let me know what kind of queries do I need to put against the client(customer). Also please share if any doc is in place.
Thanks in advance.

Hi @asm_coe,

What are you looking for exactly ? Deployment guides ? Or monitoring for the infrastructure ?

If it's a deployment guide/type of architectures have a look here for sizing :
https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/7.2.6/Deploy/Deploymentcharacteristics

If you're looking to monitor the infrastructure then make sure you have a monitoring console configured. You can find all the configuration for the MC here :
https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/7.2.6/DMC/Configureindistributedmode
Make sure all your components are visible from the MC to ensure that everything is monitored.

Cheers,
David
