@richgalloway Thanks for your prompt response. It is truly appreciated. Yea you are right. I meant, Is there documentation on just simple setup for distributed environment? or Is it best to just read all splunk documentation from the very beginning(i.e. Admin Guide, etc)? It's alot of documentation out there that i didn't know where to start from. When installing the apps and addons, do they need to be installed on all instances or just the search head only? (i.e Splunk Add-on for Unix and Linux, Splunk Add-on for Microsoft Windows, Splunk Add-on for Apache Web Server, IT Essentials Work, ITSI, *Nix app, Qmolos, etc. Right now what's important now is just getting the search head, indexers, forwarders and deployment server to communicate with each other. According to my management, they want to see just logs only for right now in our small splunk deployment before getting deeper. How do i test my whole deployment and see if everything is working and communicating? How to search the heirarchy on the search head?

Hello All, I'm a Splunk newbie and i have 3 questions. In our newly Splunk Deployment we have a Search Head, 1 Deployment Server, 2 Indexers, and 2 forwarders and we are set up in a Distributed environment. Question #1 - Is there a streamlined way or quicker way to setup each server using CLI on both linux and windows. Question #2 - Do you never need to install apps or add-ons on every server to get all splunk deployment to work? Question #3 - How would i know what add-ons and apps i would need that are important to our deployment? This is a project of mine and time is a factor. Please assist. Thanks, RPM
