Hi all,
1 I made a direct copy from HF1 to my local drive,
2 disabled in opt/splunk/etc/apps/splunk_app_db_connect the db_inputs.conf
3 uploaded the app to my HF2
4 installed java jre on HF2
5 set + X rights for 2 .sh scripts ( otherwise you got message on taskmanager !!!! )
/opt/splunk/etc/apps/splunk_app_db_connect/linux_x86_64/bin
for server.sh and on command.sh --> chmod + x server.sh and chmod + x command.sh
Restart HF2
The app should give you all inputs / connections and identities but those are DISABLED.
To check if this works and connections still can be made
6. enabled 1 identity through GUI
7. enabled 1 connection for identity above
8 started first step for input at DATA LAB, select connection, schema, table --> Query
see if data is appearing in QUERY. (If so connection is established and passwords do work on this instance also)
9 Confirmed that we can make the connection and are able to query data.
Did not configured further input for having data streaming from HF1 only but through this we
have "secured" our connections and identities if there is an outage on HF1
10 Solved !!
