Splunk ITSI

ITSI installation

ramarcsight
Explorer

I have a Search Head called JOHN
- it has several search peers connected to it in distributed environment , it has around 100 Search Peers

-so EMMA search peer 1 and EMMA search peer 2 are both connected to JOHN along with another Search Peers
So now i am trying to install ITSI app in SH -JOHN
- but the indexes that r created by ITSI APP itsi_summary,
anomaly_detection etc., - shd be only written into EMMA SEARCH PEERS 1 and 2 but not in all search peers connected to JOHN.

So by placing SA-IndexCreation in only Emma indexer 1 and indexer 2 can we achieve dis ??

IS that possible?

Hello @ramarcsight

Assuming your Indexers are clustered:
Given that data will be replicated on Index Clustering, try this link below to disable replication to specific peers (your EMMA search peer 1 and EMMA search peer 2).

Assuming your Indexers are non-clustered:
Try to forward your data on the EMMA Indexer 1 and EMMA Indexer 2 only.
Check this link below:
