Good morning, We've been testing PE and beginning developing modules for our infrastructure. One of the modules I'm looking to create is an installation for Splunk, with the primary focus at this time, on the Forwarder. I already have the splunkforwarder-5.0.1-143156-linux-2.6-amd64.deb package being fetched from the Master and also performing the installation via dpkg. I need help brainstorming/figuring out the best way to handle the rest of the installation/configuration commands. Here is the guide I was given to complete the installation for the Splunk Forwarder:
*dpkg -i splunkforwarder-5.0.1-143156-linux-2.6-amd64.deb* * * *source /opt/splunkforwarder/bin/setSplunkEnv * * * *splunk start* * * *splunk add forward-server 10.1.1.45:9996* * Splunk username: admin* * Password: password* * * *splunk restart* * * *splunk enable boot-start* * * *cd /data/apps/ror/pws/current/log* * * *splunk add monitor .* * * *edit /opt/splunkforwarder/etc/apps/search/local/inputs.conf* * * *Add the following lines:* * * *inputs.conf for the web servers* *[monitor:///var/log]* *disabled = false* * * *[monitor:///data/apps/ror/pws/shared/log/leads.log]* *disabled = false* *sourcetype = est_appts* * * *[monitor:///data/apps/ror/pws/shared/log/audit.log]* *disabled = false* *sourcetype = salesbooks* * * *[monitor:///data/apps/ror/pws/shared/log/production.log]* *disabled = false* *sourcetype = rails* * * *[monitor:///data/apps/ror/pws/shared/log/call_attempts.log]* *disabled = false* *sourcetype = call_attempts* * * *[monitor:///data/apps/ror/pws/shared/log/call_selection.log]* *disabled = false* *sourcetype = call_selection* I'm ok using a template/content parameter for handling the * /opt/splunkforwarder/etc/apps/search/local/inputs.conf* file. What are some of the recommended ways for handling the install steps prior to the inputs.conf edits?
