  • New environment variables exposed to control replication/search factor for clusters, key/value pairs written to splunk-launch.conf, and replacing default security key (pass4SymmKey)

NOTE Changes made to support new features may break backwards-compatibility with former versions of the default.yml schema. This was deemed necessary for maintainability and extensibility for these additional features requested by the community. While we do test and make an effort to support previous schemas, it is strongly advised to regenerate the default.yml if you plan on upgrading to this version.

DEPRECATION WARNING As mentioned in the changelog, the environment variables SPLUNK_SHC_SECRET and SPLUNK_IDXC_SECRET will now be replaced by SPLUNK_SHC_PASS4SYMMKEY and SPLUNK_IDXC_PASS4SYMMKEY respectively. Both are currently supported and will be mapped to the same setting now, but in the future we will likely remove both SPLUNK_SHC_SECRET and SPLUNK_IDXC_SECRET
