Hi!
I've inherited an app which contains custom searches only (this isn't a Splunkbase app, but an "in house" app.) My users want to be able to delete searches, etc from the app, but they can't. I want them to be able to both manage the searches in the app without having a new deployment, and also not have a subsequent push of all apps cause searches to come back.
To fix this, can I do the following:
1) On the SH Deployer, move the searches from default/savedsearches.conf to local
2) Set app.conf to use Full Deployment
3) Push the deployment
4) Set the app back to local?
Looking at this: https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/8.0.2/DistSearch/PropagateSHCconfigurationchanges, I think this will work, but I want to make sure.
"Use [full deployment] mode if you have a configuration on the deployer in the app's /local directory, and you want to push it to the members and then delete it from the deployer." - This is saying basically that it wipes out the app, and then pushes the new one, correct? Then, when I'm done, change it back to "local_only".
Am I reading that correctly? What I don't want to do is start having searches from the previous version being stored in users folders, etc.
Thanks!
Stephen
