I am facing a problem in setting up a cluster in splunk...
I have 1 master splunk instance with 2 replication factor and 2 search factor, i have 3 splunk instance as peer node and 1 splunk instance as search head.
Now i have configured a load balancing forwarder for peer machines..as soon as i get data in file configured in forwarder, i get data spread on peer node(some data on some peer node while other on other peer node).
On the search head node and master node i get data from all peer node.But on the peers node i can see data specific to only that peer node,is that the way it should actually be..or their is some problem ?
Also the problem is that as my one of the peers get down,its data is erased from the search head node and master,but when the peer node is up the data comes back on the seach head and master.My problem is that in case when the peer is down.i am not getting data of the downed peer node..Please help me is this case.
Thanks in advance..
