What are your benefits?
By using this package, we can carry out the upgrade work by following a procedure manual that has been reviewed with detailed consideration of the customer's situation and with reference to our upgrade knowledge, thereby minimizing troubles on the day.
In addition, any problems that arise during the upgrade process can be resolved quickly, ensuring that the Splunk upgrade can be completed without delay to schedule.

Let me introduce some real examples.
Procedure manual review
When reviewing procedure manuals, we check the procedures for the following points to prevent problems before they occur.
- Incorrect command or directory
- Add-on version upgrade procedure
- Indexer and forwarder stop process missing
Same-day response example
After the upgrade, when checking the settings of each instance, we discovered that some of the universal forwarder settings had disappeared. After investigating the cause using the diag file, we discovered that there was a problem with communication between the deployment server (an instance for managing the settings of multiple universal forwarders) and each universal forwarder. We then added settings to the configuration file (outputs.conf) and restarted the system to resolve the issue.
Customer testimonials
We received thorough support even before the work began, which allowed us to work with peace of mind on the day.
