Is persistentQueueSize supported with splunktcp-ssl inputs?  When reviewing the documentation around persisting data it says network-based inputs are supported, but the documentation for inputs.conf seems to indicate they are NOT supported.

I have some Intermediate Forwarders (Using Splunk Universal Forwarder 8.2.5) configured with persistentQueueSize  and it looks like it's working.  I see active reading/writing of cache files under SPLUNK_HOME/var/run/splunk/splunktcpin/pq__9997_0 and pq__9997_1.

Thoughts?  Thanks!
