Can a forwarder be client of two deployment servers?

One of the universal forwarder is connected to another team deployment server, so we need to connect to our deployment server now and we don't want to use the another team DS. 

I am not able to see any configuration related to that in deploymentclient.conf 

What is the proper sintax for use this?

Hi

there can be only one DS for one DC at once. Of course you could have many DS behind LB VIP, but not totally different.

Can you create several server classes for that client?

Comment everything from deploymentclient.conf

and add
[target-broker:deploymentServer]
targetUri = https://<your server>:8089
 
Restart splunk service 
 
make sure port 8089 is open towards your DS.
