Is it possible to modify inputs.conf on our Windows universal forwarders via serverclass.conf using the deployment server?

Hi,

I am trying to manage the universal forwarders on all our Windows system using the deployment server. They all have the same app (splunk_TA_windows) but the inputs.conf are all different on each server. Is it possible to manage this via serverclass.conf?

For example:

server 1 inputs.conf:

[WinEventLog://Application]
disabled = 0
start_from = oldest
current_only = 0
index = main
host =develop

server 2 inputs.conf:

[WinEventLog://Application]
disabled = 0
start_from = oldest
current_only = 0
index = main
host =staging

Thanks,
Milan

I would create a "splunk_TA_Windows_hostoverride" app and use IP-based stanzas in props.conf to override the hosts as necessary after the fact.
