Does Splunk App for Enterprise Security support multi-site cluster architecture?

Splunk documentation for the Enterprise Security App lists support for single-site cluster architectures. I am planning a large ES installation across multiple geographical locations and wanted to know if the ES app (latest version) was able to support a multi-site cluster architecture.

The Enterprise Security app Deployment planning topic on Clustering has been updated to show support for multisite clustering. Please note that a single-site or multi-site cluster architecture can have one search head or search head pool with a running instance of the Splunk App for Enterprise Security. Any other search heads cannot run the Enterprise Security app.

Thanks!

ES 3.1.0 has been certified to run on multisite clustering. Filed a request to update the docs.
