Hello,

We have 1 master server (Receiver or Indexer) and 50 slave servers. All are LINUX servers. 

Now, we need to install universal forwarder in all 50 Linux machines.  Is there any way to automate this installation process without any manual work?

It would be really helpful if i get the solution.

Thanks,

Ragav

Hi @adminpulse,

on Windows you can use a GPO, but on Linux, the only solution is a shall script like the one you can find in my previous answer:
