SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Render the full Splunk Edge Processor setup artifacts (control-plane objects, Linux install scripts, pipelines, and handoffs) for Cisco Data Fabric integration across Splunk Cloud Platform tenants and Splunk Enterprise 10.0+ data management nodes.

Core Features & Use Cases

Render edge-processors, source-types, destinations, and pipelines to establish a reproducible control-plane model.
Generate host install scripts for systemd, non-systemd, and Docker variants that securely consume operator-supplied install commands without exposing tokens in argv, plus preflight and validate workflows.
Validate offline and perform live REST workflow when EP_API_BASE is provided, with manual fallbacks for apply steps.

Quick Start

Render a full Edge Processor setup for your Splunk Cloud tenant by running the render phase and review the generated assets.

FAQPage Schema

How do I automate Splunk Edge Processor deployments for multiple tenants?▼

You can automate Splunk Edge Processor deployments by rendering control-plane objects, pipelines, and destinations into reproducible artifacts. Generate host install scripts with preflight checks to securely apply configurations across multiple Splunk Cloud tenants.

Can I generate Splunk Edge Processor install scripts for Docker and systemd?▼

Yes, you can generate host install scripts for systemd, non-systemd, and Docker variants. These scripts securely consume operator-supplied install commands without exposing tokens in argv, ensuring safe Splunk Edge Processor deployment.

What is offline rendering for Splunk Edge Processor configurations?▼

Offline rendering for Splunk Edge Processor configurations means generating pipelines, destinations, and edge routing artifacts without a live API connection. You validate these artifacts locally and optionally apply them via REST later.

Does the Splunk Edge Processor setup support Cisco Data Fabric integration?▼

Yes, the Splunk Edge Processor setup supports Cisco Data Fabric integration across Splunk Cloud Platform tenants and Splunk Enterprise 10.0+ data management nodes. It renders edge routing and data shaping configurations for these environments.

How do I apply rendered Splunk Edge Processor pipelines via REST?▼

Apply rendered Splunk Edge Processor pipelines via REST by providing the EP_API_BASE environment variable. The workflow performs live validation and application, with manual fallbacks available for specific apply steps.

What preflight checks are needed before deploying Splunk Edge Processor assets?▼

Preflight checks for deploying Splunk Edge Processor assets validate offline renders and verify environment readiness before applying changes via REST. These guardrails ensure your edge routing and data shaping configurations apply safely.
