How do I load the Universal Forwarder on a IBMi LPAR?

Can you put us in touch with a customer that is using either IronStream or EView to get data into Splunk? We want to get Splunk up and running in our Dev/Test environment in the next month. Thank You.

There is no native Universal Forwarder for iSeries; you will have to use other means to get the data off of the environment.
Options include FTP export or Message Queuing (if you run MQSeries, for example), or reading from a database via the Splunk DBConnect app.

Try this, too.
