Hello All,

I'm monitoring forwarder status from SH using _internal call and getting proper response from Universal forwarders 6.3.3 but not getting any response from UF 6.4.3, command is getting hanged.
Command used:
./splunk _internal call /services/server/status/partitions-space -method GET -uri https://serverName:8089 -auth admin:changeme

SH version: 6.2

Please provide the solution.

I enabled AllowRemoteLogin parameter in server.conf file.
allowRemoteLogin =always

For the same configuration I am getting response from UF 6.3.3.

Is the password 「changeme」?
In order to make a remote call, it is necessary to change the password.

Note: Remote CLI access is disabled by default for the admin user until you have changed its default password.
