Getting Data In

Is configuration bundle used to remove an app or add-on?

We are moving to a new Anti-Virus vendor and I will need to add the add-on (TA) for the new vendor. My question concerns the old TA. If I remove the $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/master-apps/ section concerning the old vendor, does that remove the TA from the cluster nodes? Or am I going to have to delete the TA using "splunk remove app -auth user:PW" command?

Hi scottrunyon,
Splunk will work as you described, it will match the apps in .../master-apps on CM to the .../slave-apps on peers.
so you can safely remove old add-on and place new one, or just add the new one. more to read here:

hope it helps
