Hi there,
I have a network with Windows and Linux Systems mixed.
It is not possible to seperate them or create IP ranges.
Now for me it is important to know if a app deployed for Windows causing problems on a Linux machine? And if a Windows Systems get a app deployed for Linux?
The App for Windows Systems is collecting PerfMon data and the App for Linux is monitoring directories.
Is there a way to check the operating system before roll out the app? I want to avoid that Windows systems get the apps for the Linux Systems and the same for Linux.
Thanks in advance
Sure, have a look at http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/latest/Deploy/Definedeploymentclasses
In particular you want to look at machineTypes, here you can define the machine type. To find your machine type have a look at this from the serverclass.conf documentation;
# client machineTypes can also be used to match clients.
# This setting lets you use the hardware type of the deployment client as a filter.
# This filter will be used only if a client could not be matched using the whitelist/blacklist filter.
# The value for machineTypes is a specific string that is designated by the hardware platform itself.
# The method for finding this string on the client itself will vary by platform, but if the deployment client
# is already connected to the deployment server, you can determine what this string is by using this
# Splunk CLI command on the deployment server:
# <code>./splunk list deploy-clients</code>
# This will return a value for <code>utsname</code> that you can use to
# specify <code>machineTypes</code>.

thanks for that! Splunk rocks 😉
