Is it best practice to copy the /search/local directory to the new search head cluster members and not use the deployer? I used a deployer to set up LDAP, but per documentation, it says not to do the same for the search application.
Per Documentation:
The types of updates that the deployer handles
These are the specific types of updates that require the deployer:
- New or upgraded apps.
- Configuration files that you edit directly.
- **All non-search-related updates**, even those that can be configured through the CLI or Splunk Web, such as updates to indexes.conf or inputs.conf.
- Settings that need to be migrated from a search head pool or a standalone search head. These can be app or user settings.
