Hello, is there a way to upgrade Splunk universal forwarder to all onboarded endpoints using the deployment server? I was looking for answers but I didn't find anything helpful.

Thank you.

Hi

Officially Splunk don't  support UF binary upgrade via DS. Fortunately this feature seems to be in development phase https://ideas.splunk.com/ideas/EID-I-70.

On splunkbase.splunk.com there are couple of apps which can use for that. Just look apps named Upgrade xyz. I haven't any experience how good those are working, so you are using those with your own risk!
