Fresh install (not in production yet) so I can reconfigure as necessary.
Distributed deployment, all Splunk servers are Linux; 1 search head, 3 indexer cluster, 1 deployment server
Getting an error during guided setup re version 6 of the add-on is installed.
Have been following this guide:
https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/MSApp/1.5.1/MSInfra/AbouttheSplunkAppforMSInfrastructurea

Okay to bypass this error?

You could use v6, but you would have to bypass the pre-requisite checks. However, please note that you have to complete certain steps prior to deploying v6. Right now, I personally feel it isn't worth the headache. I've come across various issues with dashboards and data not ingesting correctly.

I used the 5.x version and it's working. Not sure why Splunk released the 6.x version and didn't include it as part of this. Must be for something else.
