License manager connections

What is the maximum grace period for a Splunk cluster to remain functional once the connection to the License Manager is severed.

I'm looking to set up a hybrid multi-cluster indexer architecture (Cloud & On-Prem) managed by a single, centralized License Manager instance.

Hi @manhdt 

The Splunk client/instance will get a license violation if it cannot reach the license server for 72 hours.

For more information check out Violations due to broken connections between license manager and peers

Thanks @livehybrid ! 

That’s exactly what I was looking for, as I’m planning to create separate indexer clusters across multiple clouds.
