I have the below command to setup ES through CLI but looking only juniper add-on to get install. Please let me know the command for it.

I remember that we have the option to see the essential command arguments from Splunk server.

Please let me know the file which has the command argument details.

/opt/splunk/bin/splunk search '| essinstall --deployment_type

shc_deployer --skip-ta'

If you have a file with all the details, what more do you need? Try examining the code at $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/SplunkEnterpriseSecurity/bin/essinstall.py

You can specify the names of the add-ons to install, skip, or disable on the command line.  See the documentation at https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/ES/6.2.0/Install/InstallEnterpriseSecurity#Install_Splunk_Ente...

You must know the name(s) of the subdirectories for each add-on.  AFAIK, there is no command to display those names prior to installing ES.
