The term '.\install_uf.ps1' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. Chec
k the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again.

Splunk Insights for Infrastructure uses Splunk Universal Forwarder for Windows data collection. So, as long as Splunk UF is supported and you can run the powershell script to configure it, everything will work.
Here is the supported OS doc for UF:

I got it. Splunk Insights for Infrastructure is supporting windows 2008 server r2. We need to update the powershell 2 to powershell 4. Its working fine.

After updating the powershell try to run the agent installation script. It will work.
