Answer

  • No, it is not supported to install a Splunk Universal or Heavy Forwarder directly on NetApp ONTAP or StorageGRID.
  • Splunk forwarders are designed to run on general-purpose operating systems (Linux, Windows, etc.). They require access to standard OS libraries and user-space tools.
  • Please review the Splunk documentation or contact Splunk support if you have any questions.
