Getting Data In

While one of my hosts is forwarding data to Splunk, how come the other one is not?

i installed two hosts to forward data to Splunk.

The first is forwarding data well, but the other is not.

In the configure file, both are well configured.

What can I do for both hosts to forward the same Splunk?

Hello @bosola

Please check the below things:
1. Check the ports are opened
2. Check using netstats command if the connection has been established
3. Check the splunkd logs on forwarder to check for any error
4. Check the _internal index on Indexer to check if the connection has been established or not.

Thanks!
