After upgrade to Splunk Enterprise 6.3 we are receiving "Failed to fetch REST endpoint uri=https://127.0.0.1:8089/services/licenser/slaves?count=0 from server=https://127.0.0.1:8089"

Since upgrading to Splunk version 6.3 we are receiving in the splunkd.log every 10 mins :

ERROR SearchOperator:rest - sid:subsearch_summarize_1443565748.14869_1443565748.14870 Failed to fetch REST endpoint uri=https://127.0.0.1:8089/services/licenser/slaves?count=0 from server=https://127.0.0.1:8089

I think i found a solution.
We upgraded from 5 to 6.3 and got the same problem.
The deployment monitor is deprecated since 6.3 and it seems like this is causing this error.

We removed the deployment monitor, restarted splunk and no longer get this error message.
I hope this helps.

How did you remove the deployment monitor? Did you delete the folder within splunk\etc\apps? Or disable it through the apps management GUI?
