Hi santoshdayala,
do you want Recommended hardware capacity/configuration for for the Forwarder system or Splunk Enterprise System?
if Forwarder, there aren't specifications, think that Universal Forwarder adds a just little overload on the server.
If Splunk Enterprise, see http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/7.0.1/Capacity/Referencehardware
