Getting Data In

How to update outputs.conf on univeral forwarders from Deployment Server

I would like to update my universal forwarders to send data to 2 separate endpoints for 2 separate splunk environments.  How can I do this using my Deployment Server.  I already have an App that I will use for UF update.

Hi @FPERVIL ,

I usually deploy on all the Forwarders an app, usually called TA_Forwarders, containing at least three files:

  • app.conf
  • deploymentclient.conf,
  • outputs.conf.

in this way I can centrally manage both sending data to Indexers and Conncection to Deployment Server.

Ciao.

Giuseppe
