how to set the frozen path in Index Cluster?

[datamine]

hi All,

We have an index cluster(2 indexers) and we need to archive the Frozen buckets to a storage location. Do we need to specify the frozen buckets on idx1 and idx2 to point to same location path or do we need to configure them in separate locations?

IDX1: /mnt/s3/frozen/

IDX2: /mnt/s3/frozen/b2/

Thanks,
Devon

you have to setup the same location on the both indexers, please check the splunk docs below:
