Cluster manager node does not appear in Setup menu

[Haleb]

Hi, I tried to build Splunk environment with 1 SH and indexer cluster with 2 pears + manager node. When I go to Monitoring console -> Settings -> General Setup it shows me only my SH and pears without manager node

But when I go to Distributed environment I can see my indexer manager configured

I did something wrong or it should not be displayed in General Setup menu?

Hi @Haleb ,

where did you run the Monitoring Console, on SH?
it's better to use it on Cluster Manager or (better) on a dedicated server.

Anyway, if this is a lab, you have to configure your Monicoring Console, accessing all the systems in your infrastructure as Search Peer.

In other words, go in [Settings > Distributed Search > Add Peer] and add also the Cluster Manager as Search peer (on 8089 port) and you'll see it in the Monitoring Console.

I did the same error some years ago!

Ciao.
