Can I script add new deployment clients to a Server Class?

So when we build a new server and install the Splunk forwarder on the server.

Is there a way to script to add that new deployment client to a Server Class?

Hi @eburnett,

why don't you try a different approach: instead to list all the hostnames of clients of a ServerClass, try to use a generic definition in whitelist?

e.g.: if you want in a ServerClass all the windows servers except Domain Controllers, you could put:

  • * in whitelist,
  • windows X64 in type,
  • domain1, domain2, domain3 in blacklist

in this way adding a new server windows, automatically it will be inserted in that ServerClass.

Ciao.

Giuseppe
