Configure ds repository mode

Set up agent management to use the default ds repository mode, which reads supported data directly from the agent management index data.

The ds repository mode reads supported data directly from the agent management index data. To configure ds mode, you set repository_type = ds. When you don't use the Postgres-backed repository mode, you don't need the saved-search pipeline.

  1. Open or create $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/system/local/agent_management.conf and set your repository type.
    CODE
    [general]
    repository_type = ds
  2. In $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/SplunkDeploymentServerConfig/local/savedsearches.conf, deactivate the producer searches and their scheduler.
    CODE
    [AgentManagerAppEventData]
    disabled = 1
    enableSched = 0
    [AgentManagerPhonehomeData]
    disabled = 1
    enableSched = 0
    [AgentManagerClientData]
    disabled = 1
    enableSched = 0
  3. In the same file, disable the summary search stanza.
    CODE
    [AgentManagerEventSummary]
    disabled = 1
  4. Restart the Splunk instance to apply the repository and saved-search configuration changes.

Agent management reads supported data directly from the agent management index data. The saved-search pipeline is now inactive.
