Thank you for your insights @gcusello . So for deploymentclient.conf in 2nd-tier DS, it will be deploymentclient.conf [deployment-client] phoneHomeIntervalInSecs = 600 serverRepositoryLocationPolicy = rejectAlways repositoryLocation = $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/deployment-apps [target-broker:deploymentServer] targetUri= https://masterdeploymentserver:8089 Also, for these items below, can you further explain? "About the ServerClass.conf file, I prefer to manually manage it, even if you could deploy it using the main DS." - Do we have other configs we need to set in serverclass.conf for Master DS and 2nd-tier DS in backend? Or we can utilize the Splunk Web Forwarder Management alone? "About the reload of the configurations from the secondary DS, it's possible to force it, but anyway, it will automatically run when it's the turn of those clients." - When you mention to force it, are we pertaining in running the /opt/splunk/bin/splunk reload deploy-server command?
