Hello,

Does SPLUNK UF/HF is compatible with Ubuntu 20.x of later version? Any recommendation would be highly appreciated. Thank you!

Hi @SplunkDash,

Ubuntu 20 has a 5.15 Linux Kernal, this means that Splunk Enterprise and Splunk Universal Forwarders 9.0.x are compatible with all the Linux Operative Systems with kernel 5.4 or higher as you can read at https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/9.1.0/Installation/Systemrequirements#Unix_operating_sy....

Even if I read of many problems using Ubuntu reported by the Community members.

I don't have special reccomandations: only follow all the installation steps documented at https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/9.0.5/Installation/InstallonLinux and https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Forwarder/9.0.5/Forwarder/Installanixuniversalforwarder but it's a very simple procedure

Ciao.

Giuseppe
