Deployment Architecture

Why isn't calendar_heatmap_app being deployed to the SHs?

I deployed the out-of-the-box calendar_heatmap_app from the deployer server to the three search heads. They haven't reached /opt/splunk/etc/apps on the three SHs.

grep -i heatmap < splunkd.log on the deployer doesn't show anything. What can it be?

So you had the apps in deployment-apps but your command output is for a cluster. Search head cluster members are not managed via deployment apps but etc/shcluster/apps/

If your search heads are clustered. Placed the heatmap app under etc/shcluster/apps on the search head deployer and then push the bundle. It should now reach to search heads

Did you check if your bundle push command did not error out? Did it say successful ?

Right, it said - Bundle has been pushed successfully to all the cluster members.

Did you put the app in etc/shcluster/apps or etc/apps under the deployer? Any errors in conf.log /var/log/splunk/conf.log on the deployer

I placed the app under - /opt/splunk/etc/deployment-apps/.

About - /opt/splunk/var/log/splunk
$ grep -i error < conf.log

No errors since 05-12-2018.
