Prerequisites

  • Review the Splunk platform requirements for Splunk Enterprise Security. See Deployment planning.
  • If a deployment server manages any of the apps or add-ons included with Splunk Enterprise Security, remove the deploymentclient.conf file that contains references to the deployment server and restart Splunk services. If you do not do this, the installation will not complete.
  • Your user account must have the admin role and the edit_local_apps capability. The admin role is assigned that capability by default.
  • Approximately 3 GB of free space is required in the /tmp/ directory for the installation or upgrade to complete. When installing or upgrading an app through either the CLI or Splunk Web UI, the /tmp/ directory is used during the process.
