How to verify deployment client configuration

beaunewcomb · ‎01-03-2013

On Windows 8-based Splunk Forwarder-

C:\Program Files\SplunkUniversalForwarder\etc\system\local\deploymentclient.conf

[deployment-client]
disabled = false

[target-broker:deploymentServer]
targetUri = 192.168.0.100:8089

On Linux-based deployment server-

/opt/splunk/etc/system/local/serverclass.conf

[global]

[serverClass:testClass]
whitelist.0 = *
restartSplunkd = true

[serverClass:testClass:app:testapp]

I restart splunk and reload deployment configuration (./splunk reload deploy-server) but I still get:

No deployment clients have contacted this server.

I've verified that the win8 machine can connect to the deployment server on 8089, restarted both services, but nothing.

Is there a command I can run on the forwarder to verify the deployment server it's trying to connect to?
