need guidance on situation below
server1 with splunk install to be migrated to server2.
plan is to detach the disk from server1 and attach it to server2.
the server names will be different.
do i need to run a install of same version on top of it on server2 , as the server.conf and other files will have the old servername i.e server1 in its conf files..

Hi, thanks for the steps.
is it really necessary to run the splunk intsall on the new server , even when i detach and attach the disk...
the disk with /opt/splunk has the full setup .
i understand to change the server.conf and inputs.conf, which ill take care.. but wanted to know if the splunk install was necessary in this case...
thanks

not need to run the Splunk install, as the disk is already having Splunk install.
great, thank you
