Hi splunk_zen,
Thank you for your reply - Do the indexers map directly to ingest and the search heads directly to search? From my understanding, indexers aid when running searches as well, so I thought that it may be inaccurate to set the categories based just on the resource consumption of search heads/indexers.
Also, do you know why the default split is 70:20:10 for search:index:miscellaneous? When I checked the resource consumption, indexers used far more resources than search heads so I wanted to double-check that this approach was fine.
And one last question! Does workload management kick in once we activate it? ie. Should I expect search heads and indexers to go down if they don't have enough resources immediately after we install it?
