Getting Data In

How to get a list of all hosts installed with Universal Forwarder

I have a bunch of agents(hosts) in Appdynamics, I wanted to figure out that the Universal Forwarder is installed or not in all those hosts to collect logs to Splunk.
Is there any way that I can get the list of hosts that installed with UF.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Vetrikmr
if you want to find servers that sent logs to Indexers you can use the Monitor Console, in this way you have many additional information about them.
If instead you want to know Universal Forwarderd connected to a deployment Server you have to access it and go in [Settings -- Forwarders Management].

Bye.

Hi,

You can run below query to find out which hosts are sending data to your splunk instance.

index="_internal" source="*metrics.log*" group=tcpin_connections | dedup hostname| table hostname,sourceIp,fwdType,guid,version,build,os,arch

If you want to find only universal forwarders then please use below query.

index="_internal" source="*metrics.lo*" group=tcpin_connections  fwdType=uf | dedup hostname| table hostname,sourceIp,fwdType,guid,version,build,os,arch
