Monitoring Splunk

How do I fix KVStore error in indexer cluster

Hello,

I used :

|rest /services/server/info|table host kvStoreStatus

to check kvstore status after upgrading splunk from 8.0.4.1 to 8.1.3.

Results are coherent with messages for SHC. It's taken care of.

 

But for my indexers (in a cluster), the value is either "ready" or "failed".

I'm not sure I understand what either really mean. And no clue as how to fix it, as my understanding is that the usual command for that are for search-heads.

Does this mean I can apply the same procedure as :

Thanks

Regards,

Ema
