I am building search head cluster.  But when i am initiating clustering i am getting below error. I am using below syntax for cluster initiation.  Please note I have checked my server.conf file in local directory and added entry as false for cliVerifyServerName and sslVerifyServerName. 

Also in web.conf enableSplunkWebSSL = false is already there .  

./splunk init shcluster-config -auth <username>:<password> -mgmt_uri <uri>:<managementport> -replication_port <replication port> -replication_factor <n> -conf_deploy_fetch_url <url>:<managementport> -secret <security_key> -shcluster_label <label>

I am not looking to setup any third party or self singed certificate as this is just for self learning. 

I would request your support.

That message is a warning, not an error.  You can suppress it by setting cliVerifyServerName=true, but then you would need server names in your certificates.

how to give a name in our certificates?

Hi @richgalloway 

Which file and stanza name is the edit required in ?

[SplunkingKnight]

Hi @arfee_splunker,

in the server.conf and the stanza [sslConfig], as shown in the warn message.

Best regards
