Hello @gjanders
Firstly Kudos to contributing with such a well written app with such good documentation, the code is so clean and easy to understand.
We are using an SH cluster (with 6 search Head nodes)
Our current way of backing up is to do a nightly commit from each SH (writing to its own git repo).
The implementation/feature of restoring Knowledge objects selectively from a backup seemed very promising, which is why we chose to evaluate your app.
I noticed the following FAQ question that the documentation addresses, considering SH clustering is very common - how would you suggest going about the configuration so as to be able to back up knowledge object. ( since the documentation is clearly issuing a warning against it)
Will this work on a search head cluster?
No, modular inputs run on each member at the same time which would not work well...however you can use a standalone server to backup/restore to a search head cluster.
You could also run the input on a single search head cluster member but this is not a recommended solution.
Additionally , our splunk url internally is behind an F5 Load balancer, that is to say that any user logging in would get re-directed to one of the 6 Search Head Nodes.

Mukund M
