ES 6.4 Fresh Install

I am working on a fresh install of ES 6.4. I already have a Splunk Ent environment with an indexer tier, apps, single search head, etc. ES has been installed on a standalone search head, but not configured. I have configured ES before, but it was a few versions and a few years back. 

What are some good resources to get ES configured besides the install docs?

Since I already have a Splunk environment with forwarders, add-ons, etc. it looks like my next step might be 'Create the Splunk_TA_ForIndexers and manage deployment manually'. If I go to this step am I skipping something I shouldn't skip?
