Which apps have you included in the server class? Do any of them include inputs.conf? What are the inputs.conf settings? Is there an outputs.conf that tells the forwarder where the indexers are? Have you verified the apps are installed on the forwarder?

Hi niranjan28,
can you please describe your setup?
Is there a Splunk Universal Forwarder sending data to your Indexer?
If yes: Does it get listed in your Monitoring Console correctly?
Kind regards,
Michael
