Dears,
After upgraded Splunk from 9.1.2 version to 9.2.0 version, the deployment server not showing the clients, but Splunk receiving logs from clients, and also the client agents showing on all Splunk servers under setting --> Forwarder Managment except Deployment server, I don't know how that occurred, I didn't change anything.
Kindly your support for that.
Best Regards,
Dears,
I have resolved the issue by adding below configuration under outputs.conf in the deployment server, then restart splunk service in the deployment server.
[indexAndForward]
index = true
selectiveIndexing = true
You can see below URL:
We are experiencing the same thing. The clients are showing up in the client_events logs checking in and phoning home on the deployment server. But after updating to 9.2 they aren't appearing under the Settings>Forwarder Management page on the DS. We have not made any changes to the forwarders yet.
FWIW, happening here as well, with 9.2.0.1.
Checked all The Things mentioned in that doc everyone keeps referencing, including those stanzas mentioned numerous times here.
Another symptom of mine is that the ForwarderManager (deployer) doesn't appear in my monitored servers in the SplunkManager (aka Master).
This is nuts. Go figure.
I ended up fixing this my removing the "Deployment Server" role from the system, saving it, then adding it back, restarting the service, bam! Fixed.
I'd rather be lucky than good...
Hmmm, are you talking about the role defined within the Monitoring Console? I am having tons of issues resolving this.
Hi,
Did you open case with Splunk support about this issue, I already opened still Splunk support trying to resolve it.
Best Regards,
Any luck with support? I tried the outputs.conf solution in this thread but it doesn't seem to have worked.
Pre-upgrade from 9.0.x to 9.2.1 I had 300ish clients in my DS. right now only 14 are showing up.
Thanks,
Dave
Applying the stanza you referenced below worked for us as well:
[indexAndForward] index = true selectiveIndexing = true
Thanks!
Created a local directory within the SplunkDeploymentServerConfig app. Added the outputs.conf
/opt/splunk/etc/apps/SplunkDeploymentServerConfig/local/outputs.conf
[indexAndForward]
index = true
selectiveIndexing = true
Clients started reporting to the DS after restarting Splunk. Thankful I found this thread.
Careful, the linked documentation page says not to modify that app in any way.
