Hi Splunkers,

We have configured 3 new heavy forwarder in our splunk enterprise where 2 HF was already working.

Now we want traffic route from universal forwarder to  all the 5 HF but we are receiving traffic from only old 2 HF but not from 3 newly introduced HF.

telnet from UF to HF is working fine and input and output are configured properly.

Can any one suggest solution for this.

 Thanks.

No luck. We tried to configure output.conf on UF as you mentioned below but Still we are seeing the same error.

2things to check for starters 

Is there input configured on hf to receive logs from uf 

And from uf are you getting anything on hf try netstat -aon |grep port on which you are forwarding.
