Splunk® Enterprise

REST API Reference Manual

Splunk Enterprise version 7.2 is no longer supported as of April 30, 2021. See the Splunk Software Support Policy for details. For information about upgrading to a supported version, see How to upgrade Splunk Enterprise.
This documentation does not apply to the most recent version of Splunk® Enterprise. For documentation on the most recent version, go to the latest release.

Cluster endpoint descriptions

Manage master and peer cluster nodes in Splunk Enterprise.

Usage details

Review ACL information for an endpoint

To check Access Control List (ACL) properties for an endpoint, append /acl to the path. For more information see Access Control List in the REST API User Manual.

Authentication and Authorization

Username and password authentication is required for access to endpoints and REST operations.

Splunk users must have role and/or capability-based authorization to use REST endpoints. Users with an administrative role, such as admin, can access authorization information in Splunk Web. To view the roles assigned to a user, select Settings > Access controls and click Users. To determine the capabilities assigned to a role, select Settings > Access controls and click Roles.

Splunk Cloud limitations

If you have a managed Splunk Cloud deployment with search head clustering and index clustering, the REST API supports access to the search head only. You can use the REST API to interact with the search head in your deployment. Using the REST API to access any other indexer cluster nodes is not supported. For example, index cluster management endpoints are not applicable to Splunk Cloud deployments.

Authorized users can access and configure other indexer cluster nodes, including indexer or cluster master, or license master nodes, in the Splunk Cloud manager user interface. 


cluster/config

https://<host>:<mPort>/services/cluster/config

Access cluster node configuration details.


GET

List cluster node configuration.

Request parameters

Pagination and filtering parameters can be used with this method.

Returned values

Name Description
cxn_timeout Low-level timeout, in seconds, for establishing connection between cluster nodes. Defaults to 60 seconds.
disabled Indicates if this node is disabled.
forwarderdata_rcv_port The port from which to receive data from a forwarder.
forwarderdata_use_ssl Indicates whether to use SSL when receiving data from a forwarder.
heartbeat_period Only valid for peer nodes in a cluster. The time, in seconds, that a peer attempts to send a heartbeat to the master
heartbeat_timeout Only valid for the master node in a cluster configuration. The time, in seconds, before a master considers a peer down. Once a peer is down, the master initiates steps to replicate buckets from the dead peer to its live peers. Defaults to 60 seconds.
master_uri Valid only for nodes configured as a peer or searchhead.

URI of the cluster master to which this node connects.

max_peer_build_load The number of jobs that a peer can have in progress at any time that make the bucket searchable.
max_peer_rep_load Maximum number of replications that can be ongoing as a target.
mode Valid values: (master | slave | searchhead | disabled) Defaults to disabled.

Sets operational mode for this cluster node. Only one master may exist per cluster.

ping_flag For internal use to facilitate communication between the master and peers.
quiet_period The time, in seconds, that a master waits for peers to add themselves to the cluster.
rcv_timeout Low-level timeout, in seconds, for receiving data between cluster nodes. Defaults to 60 seconds.
register_forwarder_address Not used.

Reserved for future use.

register_replication_address Valid only for nodes configured as peers. The address on which a peer is available for accepting replication data. This is useful in the cases where a peer host machine has multiple interfaces and only one of them can be reached by another splunkd instance.
register_search_address IP address that advertises this indexer to search heads.
rep_cxn_timeout Low-level timeout, in seconds, for establishing a connection for replicating data.
rep_max_rcv_timeout Maximum cumulative time, in seconds, for receiving acknowledgement data from peers. Defaults to 600s.
rep_max_send_timeout Maximum time, in seconds, for sending replication slice data between cluster nodes. Defaults to 600s.
rep_rcv_timeout Low-level timeout, in seconds, for receiving data between cluster nodes.
rep_send_timeout Low-level timeout, in seconds, for sending replication data between cluster nodes. Defaults to 5 seconds.
replication_factor Only valid for nodes configured as a master.

Determines how many copies of raw data are created in the cluster. This could be less than the number of cluster peers.

Must be greater than 0 and greater than or equal to the search factor. Defaults to 3.

replication_port TCP port to listen for replicated data from another cluster member.
replication_use_ssl Indicates whether to use SSL when sending replication data.
restart_timeout Only valid for nodes configured as a master. The amount of time, in seconds, the master waits for a peer to come back when the peer is restarted (to avoid the overhead of trying to fix the buckets that were on the peer). Defaults to 600 seconds.

Note: This only works if the peer is restarted from Splunk Web.

search_factor Only valid for nodes configured as a master. Determines how many searchable copies of each bucket to maintain. Must be less than or equal to replication_factor and greater than 0. Defaults to 2.
secret Secret shared among the nodes in the cluster to prevent any arbitrary node from connecting to the cluster. If a peer or searchhead is not configured with the same secret as the master, it is not able to communicate with the master.

Corresponds to pass4SymmKey setting in server.conf.

send_timeout Low-level timeout, in seconds, for sending data between cluster nodes. Defaults to 60 seconds.
summary_replication Boolean indicator of whether summary replication is on or off. A true value means that it is turned on.

cluster/master/buckets/{bucket_id}/remove_from_peer

https://<host>:<mPort>/services/cluster/master/buckets/{bucket_id}/remove_from_peer

Deletes the copy of this bucket from specified peer.

If the request causes the cluster to lose its complete state, the cluster will engage in fixup activities. This may result in another copy of the same bucket appearing on this peer. If, however, the specified bucket is frozen, the cluster does not attempt any fixup activities.

Caution: Using this endpoint will cause irreversible data loss. It is recommended to test the endpoint on a test-cluster prior to use on an actual bucket.


Authentication and Authorization
Requires the admin role or indexes_edit capability.


POST

Delete this bucket from specified peer. Set bucket state to frozen

Request parameters

Name Type Description
peer (required) GUID Peer GUID


Returned values
None. If the peer parameter is missing from the request, an error message is returned.

cluster/master/control/control/roll-hot-buckets

https://<host>:<mPort>/services/cluster/master/control/control/roll-hot-buckets

This endpoint forces a specified bucket in an indexer cluster to roll from hot to warm. Pass the bucket id (bid) to the master node. The master instructs the origin peer for that bucket to roll its copy. In turn, the origin peer tells all the replicating peers to roll their copies

You might discover a bucket that is stuck in fixup and needs to be rolled using logs, Splunk Web, or either of the following two endpoints.


Authorization and authentication
This endpoint requires the admin role for use.


POST

Force a bucket to roll from hot to warm.


Request parameters

Name Type Default Description

cluster/master/fixup

https://<host>:<mPort>/services/cluster/master/fixup

Access a list of buckets on a specific fixup priority level. Bucket fixups are processed in order of priority level. See Request parameters below for priority level details.

When you access a particular fixup level, buckets may appear in it even though they do not need fixup at this level. Initially, each bucket requiring fixup is added to all levels, even though it might only require processing in a subset of all levels. As the bucket is processed through a level, it is deleted from that level.


GET

List buckets on the specified fixup level.


Request parameters

Pagination and filtering parameters can be used with this method.

Name Datatype Description
level String Required. Fixup priority level. Use one of the following level values, listed in order of priority.
  • streaming : Hot buckets that need to be rolled or have their size committed.
  • data_safety : Buckets without at least two rawdata copies.
  • generation : Buckets without a primary copy.
  • replication_factor : Buckets without replication factor number of copies.
  • search_factor : Buckets without search factor number of copies.
  • checksum_sync : Level for syncing a bucket's delete files across all peers that have this bucket. Syncing is determined based on the checksum of all of the delete files.
index String Optional. Index name.


Returned values
For each bucket in the specified fixup level, the response includes the following details for the initial time when the bucket went into the fixup level and the latest time that the bucket was checked.

Name Description
id Bucket id.
reason Initial or latest reason for the bucket being on this fixup level.
timestamp Timestamp for initial bucket addition to fixup list or latest bucket check.

heartbeat_started Flag indicating if this peer has started heartbeating.
host_port_pair The host and port advertised to peers for the data replication channel.

Can be either of the form IP:port or hostname:port.

is_searchable Flag indicating if this peer belongs to the current committed generation and is searchable.
label The name for the peer. Displayed on the manager page.
last_heartbeat Timestamp for last heartbeat recieved from the peer.
latest_bundle_id The ID of the configuration bundle this peer is using.
pending_job_count Used by the master to keep track of pending jobs requested by the master to this peer.
primary_count Number of buckets for which the peer is primary in its local site, or the number of buckets that return search results from same site as the peer.
primary_count_remote Number of buckets for which the peer is primary that are not in its local site.
replication_count Number of replications this peer is part of, as either source or target.
replication_port TCP port to listen for replicated data from another cluster member.
replication_use_ssl Indicates whether to use SSL when sending replication data.
search_state_counter Lists the number of buckets on the peer for each search state for the bucket.

Searchable
Unsearchable
site To which site the peer belongs.
status Indicates the status of the peer.


Valid values are:

Up
Down
Pending
Detention
Restarting
DecommAwaitPeer
DecommFixingBuckets
Decommissioned
status_counter Lists the number of buckets on the peer for each bucket status.

NonStreamingTarget
This copy of a warm bucket replication is in progress. Once replication is complete, the status changes to Complete.
StreamingError
The copy of this bucket encountered errors while streaming data.
PendingTruncate
The master asked the peer to truncate this copy of the bucket to a certain size and is waiting for confirmation.
PendingDiscard
The master asked the peer to discard this copy of the bucket (for whatever reason, and is waiting for confirmation.

cluster/slave/control/control/re-add-peer

https://<host>:<mPort>/services/cluster/slave/control/control/re-add-peer

Set the peer to re-add itself to the master. This syncs the peer's state, including its in-memory bucket state, to the master. By default, this resets the peer's primary bucket copies and the master reassigns them across the cluster. To keep the peer's existing primary bucket copies, use the optional clearMasks=false parameter.

This endpoint can be useful when the master and the peer have a state mismatch, for example when bucket information is not in sync between them.


POST

Re-add the cluster indexer to the cluster master.


Request parameters

Name Type Default Description
clearMasks Boolean. Use true or false. true Optional. Indicates whether the master should reassign all primary bucket copies across all peers. The default true value prompts the master to reassign all primary bucket copies across all peers. Use false to re-add the peer but keep the existing primary bucket copies.


Example request and response

XML Request

cluster/slave/control/control/set_detention_override

https://<host>:<mPort>/services/cluster/slave/control/control/set_manual_detention


Deprecated. Use /set_manual_detention to manage peer node manual detention mode.


cluster/slave/control/control/set_manual_detention

https://<host>:<mPort>/services/cluster/slave/control/control/set_manual_detention

If you have Splunk Enterprise, you can use this endpoint to put the peer node in manual detention mode or take the peer out of this mode. In manual detention, the peer does not serve as a replication target. Detention helps slow the growth of disk usage on the peer.

Note:

  • This endpoint replaces the /set_detention_override endpoint.
  • Starting with Splunk Enterprise software version 6.5, manual detention persists through restarts.
  • For more information, see Put a peer in detention in Managing Indexers and Clusters of Indexers.


POST

Adjust cluster peer detention mode.


Request parameters

Name Type Description
manual_detention Use one of the following values.
  • off: Default. Remove the indexer from the detention state.
  • on: Put the indexer in manual detention mode. Close the TCP, UDP, and HTTP Event Collector data ports. Closing the ports causes most external data indexing to stop during detention.
  • on_ports_enabled: Put the indexer in manual detention mode. Do not close the TCP, UDP, or HTTP Event Collector data ports. The peer continues to index data during detention.
Enable or disable manual detention. Opt to close data ports or leave them open when manual detention is enabled.


Returned values
None

check_share_baseline

Application usage
This parameter compares the baseline between the current instance, on which the GET request is made, with the baseline of other members. From each of the other members, the system retrieves the oldest changeset that is not more than 23 hours old and therefore safe from purging. The system then tries to find that changeset in the current instance's local changeset repository. If the changeset is found in the local repository, then the current instance and the member share a baseline.

Establishing a shared baseline between a captain and members is a prerequisite for successful configuration replication.

Name Description
check_share_baseline One of the following values is returned for each of the other members.

Yes: The current instance shares a baseline with this node.

No: The current instance node does not share a baseline with this node.

Connection error: The current instance cannot contact this node. A warning is logged with additional details.

server_name Name for the member whose baseline is being compared to the current instance.

curl -k -u admin:pass https://localhost:11089/services/replication/configuration/health?check_share_baseline=1

unpublished

A Number of unpublished changes key is returned with one of the following values.

Name Description
0 All changes on this cluster member have been pushed to the captain. There are no unpublished changes on this member.
0 (This instance is the captain) This message is returned when requesting unpublished status on the captain. The captain is always in sync with itself, so there are no unpublished changes.
[Number greater than 0] The number unpublished local changes on this member. Changes are held until the next replication occurs. The node is still healthy in this case.
No captain is available The search head cluster does not currently have a captain.
Missing common baseline with the captain This member might be out of sync with the captain if this message persists after several replication periods.

This message can also appear during a transition period, for example, when a captain is switched or a member is manually resynced. On a healthy search head cluster, the unpublished value should return to a numeric value after one replication period.

shcluster/config

https://<host>:<mPort>/services/shcluster/config

List searchhead cluster node configuration.


GET

List searchhead cluster node configuration.


Request parameters

Pagination and filtering parameters can be used with this method.


Returned values

Name Description
cxn_timeout Low-level timeout, in seconds, for establishing connection between searchhead cluster nodes. Defaults to 60 seconds.
disabled Indicates if this node is disabled.
heartbeat_period Only valid for member nodes in a searchhead cluster. The time, in seconds, that a member attempts to send a heartbeat to the captain
heartbeat_timeout Only valid for the captain node in a searchhead cluster configuration. The time, in seconds, before a captain considers a member down. Once a member is down, the captain initiates steps to replicate artifacts from the dead member to its live members. Defaults to 60 seconds.
id Id of the SH cluster this member is a part of.
max_peer_rep_load Maximum number of replications that can be ongoing as a target.
mode Valid values: (disabled, member, captain, dynamic_captain) Defaults to disabled. Multiple values are permitted.

Sets operational mode for this searchhead cluster node. Only one captain may exist per searchhead cluster.

percent_peers_to_restart Percentage of peers to restart at the same time when doing a rolling restart.
ping_flag For internal use to facilitate communication between the captain and members.
quiet_period The time, in seconds, that a captain waits for members to add themselves to the searchhead cluster.
rcv_timeout Low-level timeout, in seconds, for receiving data between searchhead cluster nodes. Defaults to 60 seconds.
register_replication_address Valid only for nodes configured as members. The address on which a member is available for accepting replication data. This is useful in the cases where a member host machine has multiple interfaces and only one of them can be reached by another splunkd instance.
rep_cxn_timeout Low-level timeout, in seconds, for establishing a connection for replicating data.
rep_max_rcv_timeout Maximum cumulative time, in seconds, for receiving acknowledgement data from members. Defaults to 600s.
rep_max_send_timeout Maximum time, in seconds, for sending replication slice data between searchhead cluster nodes. Defaults to 600s.
rep_rcv_timeout Low-level timeout, in seconds, for receiving data between searchhead cluster nodes.
rep_send_timeout Low-level timeout, in seconds, for sending replication data between searchhead cluster nodes. Defaults to 5 seconds.
replication_factor Only valid for nodes configured as a captain.

Determines how many copies of raw data are created in the searchhead cluster. This could be less than the number of searchhead cluster members.

Must be greater than 0 and greater than or equal to the search factor. Defaults to 3.

replication_port TCP port to listen for replicated data from another searchhead cluster member.
replication_use_ssl Indicates whether to use SSL when sending replication data.
restart_timeout Only valid for nodes configured as a captain. The amount of time, in seconds, the captain waits for a member to come back when the member is restarted (to avoid the overhead of trying to fix the artifacts that were on the member). Defaults to 600 seconds.

Note: This only works if the member is restarted from Splunk Web.

secret Secret shared among the nodes in the searchhead cluster to prevent any arbitrary node from connecting to the searchhead cluster. If a member or searchhead is not configured with the same secret as the captain, it is not able to communicate with the captain.

Corresponds to pass4SymmKey setting in server.conf.

send_timeout Low-level timeout, in seconds, for sending data between searchhead cluster nodes. Defaults to 60 seconds.
