[ssuluguri]

Hi team,

Recently I have upgraded splunk 8.1.4 to 9.0.2 on all my instances , upgrade success and all components and its members and up,Healthy .

today I logged into one of the indexer and looking for one app under slave-app folder but the slave-app folder is not showing under etc folder . Is it happened due to upgrade or any other chances ?

Can anyone help on this .

Hi @ssuluguri ,

Prior to Splunk Enterprise version 9.0, the cluster manager used the master-apps directory as the configuration bundle repository. Starting with 9.0, a new directory called manager-apps was added to the cluster manager as a replacement for master-apps

The peer nodes used the slave-apps directory as the configuration bundle repository. Starting with 9.0, peer-apps replaces slave-apps. If your peer node was upgraded from a pre-9.0 version, the slave-apps directory was renamed to peer-apps during the upgrade process.

Additional information can be found in the Managing Indexers and Clusters of Indexers guide section

Hope this will help you, have a nice day!
