When using the props.conf LINE_BREAKER attribute to delimit multi-line events, the SHOULD_LINEMERGE attribute should be set to false. This tells Splunk not to merge events that have been broken by the LINE_BREAKER. Setting the SHOULD_LINEMERGE attribute to true, auto, or none will cause Splunk to ignore the LINE_BREAKER and merge events based on other criteria. For more information, see Configure event line breaking in the Splunk documentation.

The following clarification steps should be taken if apps are not appearing on a deployment client:

• Check serverclass.conf of the deployment server. This file defines the server classes and the apps and configurations that they should receive from the deployment server. Make sure that the deployment client belongs to the correct server class and that the server class has the desired apps and configurations.
• Check deploymentclient.conf of the deployment client. This file specifies the deployment server that the deployment client contacts and the client name that it uses. Make sure that the deployment client is pointing to the correct deployment server and that the client name matches the server class criteria.
• Search for relevant events in splunkd.log of the deployment server. This file contains information about the deployment server activities, such as sending apps and configurations to the deployment clients, detecting client check-ins, and logging any errors or warnings. Look for any events that indicate a problem with the deployment server or the deployment client.
• Checking the content of SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps of the deployment server is not a necessary clarification step, as this directory does not contain the apps and configurations that are distributed to the deployment clients. The apps and configurations for the deployment server are stored in SPLUNK_HOME/etc/deployment-apps. For more information, see Configure deployment server and clients in the Splunk documentation.

A deployment plan should include business continuity and disaster recovery plans, current logging details and data source inventory, and current and future topology diagrams of the IT environment. These elements are essential for planning, designing, and implementing a Splunk deployment that meets the business and technical requirements. A comprehensive list of stakeholders, either direct or indirect, is not part of the deployment plan, but rather part of the project charter. For more information, see Deployment planning in the Splunk documentation.
