Hey everybody,
I am trying to set up a mix of multisite and single-site indexer cluster in an splunk enterprise environment. I want our Searchhead Cluster to search through the multisite and single-site IDXC.
But after rolling out the SH configuration I get the following error.
The searchhead is unable to update the peer information. Error = 'Master has multisite enabled but it is missing the 'multisite' attribute' for master=xxx
My server.conf for the SH looks like this:
[general]
site=site0
[clustering]
mode = searchhead
master_uri = clustermaster:singlesite1,clustermaster:multisite1
[clustermaster:singlesite1]
multisite=false
master_uri=xxxx
pass4SymmKey=xxxx
[clustermaster:multisite1]
multisite=true
master_uri=xxxx
pass4SymmKey=xxxx
site=site1
After distributing this config the strange thing is, that the Multisite Configuration doesn't appear in the Webinterface on any SH. If I add the multisite CM manually the error from above is popping up, and I cant search my data.
Second strange behaviour is that, when adding the SearchPeers themselve, without a CM, the data is searchable without any problem. Looks like the config isnt pulled.
Otherwise every conneciton works fine: IDXC-Singlesite -> CM Singlesite, IDXC-Multisite -> CM Multisite, and every instance is connected to a central Monitoring Console. I read about a similiar problem in a question already asked, but the offered solution didnt help.
Thanks for any help,
Max
