Do the scripts you place in opt/splunk/bin/scripts
Remain persistent even after upgrades? Can someone provide documentation that explains?
Note: the scripts we need are not for the app context, so placing them there for us won't work.
Thanks
Hi,
After splunk upgrade, scripts in /opt/splunk/bin/scripts should be there as it is but on safer side I'll suggest you to take backup before upgrade.

Can you please point me to any documentation that supports this? I felt like this was the case as a vaguely remember upgrading and it still working.... but am engaging with a customer and like to have the doc reference if possible
Thanks
I am not aware of any documentation, when you upgrade splunk it will overwrite any existing files and/or place any new files in directories. As /opt/splunk/bin/scripts is empty directory when you fresh install splunk so I am not expecting splunk will remove or overwrite any files in /opt/splunk/bin/scripts directory during upgrade.
