Step by Step Process for Installing Universal Forwarder on Windows using SCCM

Moose
Loves-to-Learn

I've seen lots of script examples, but not an actual step by step process for using SCCM to install Universal Forwarders on Windows systems. I'm a beginner on splunk and SCCM. Looking to see if anything like that exists before I reinvent the wheel.

Thanks

Isn't a script a step-by-step example?  Combine an example script (such as the one at https://community.splunk.com/t5/Getting-Data-In/SCCM-Package-for-deploying-Splunk-Universal-Forwarde...) with the official docs at https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Forwarder/8.1.0/Forwarder/InstallaWindowsuniversalforwarderfro... and you should be able to roll your own.  If you're still stuck, we're happy to answer specific questions here.
