I am trying to upgrade 30 Universal Forwarders from 7.1.2 to 9.0.2 on Linux. I've read several responses here including this one: https://community.splunk.com/t5/Installation/Scripted-install-thrown-by-upgrade-prompt/m-p/46594 but it is not working for me. Here is what I have tried:/opt/splunkforwarder/bin/splunk start --accept-license --answer-y/opt/splunkforwarder/bin/splunk start --accept-license --answer-y --no-promptInstalling manually (from the command line and answering the prompt) works, but I really want to script this. But first I have to figure out how to avoid getting the upgrade prompt. Are there any other ideas to help me do this?
And I just tried a little somethig and it worked. The answer was using:--answer-yes vice --answer-y.
Hope this helps someone else
Perhaps it was a typo when posting the question, but the correct option name to suppress prompts is --answer-yes.
