Universal Forwarder - Configured but inactive forwarders.

$

I have a fresh install of `7.0.x` in our QA environment to test with. I have an indexer/search head/deployment server running on a RHEL7 box. I have one Universal Forwarder on a Windows Server 2012 R2 box. I have configured the indexer to listen on port 9997 and it reports it is properly doing so when I run `splunk display listen`. I have the forwarder pointed to the indexer on that same port but when I run the list forward-server command I get the following: `Active forwards: None Configured but inactive forwards: indexer.domain.com:9997 ` Where `indexer.domain.com:9997` matches `splunk show default-hostname`. When I run `lsof -i TCP:9997` on my indexer I get back the following: COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME splunkd 86629 splunk 111u IPv4 2544734 0t0 TCP *:palace-6 (LISTEN) When I run `splunk btool inputs list splunktcp --debug` I get back the following: /opt/splunk/etc/system/default/inputs.conf [splunktcp] /opt/splunk/etc/system/default/inputs.conf _rcvbuf = 1572864 /opt/splunk/etc/system/default/inputs.conf acceptFrom = * /opt/splunk/etc/system/default/inputs.conf connection_host = ip /opt/splunk/etc/system/local/inputs.conf host = indexer.domain.com /opt/splunk/etc/system/default/inputs.conf index = default /opt/splunk/etc/system/default/inputs.conf route = has_key:_replicationBucketUUID:replicationQueue;has_key:_dstrx:typingQueue;has_key:_linebreaker:indexQueue;absent_key:_linebreaker:parsingQueue /opt/splunk/etc/apps/launcher/local/inputs.conf [splunktcp://9997] /opt/splunk/etc/system/default/inputs.conf _rcvbuf = 1572864 /opt/splunk/etc/apps/launcher/local/inputs.conf connection_host = ip /opt/splunk/etc/apps/launcher/local/inputs.conf disabled = 0 /opt/splunk/etc/system/local/inputs.conf host = indexer.domain.com /opt/splunk/etc/system/default/inputs.conf index = default From my point of view everything is configured correctly. The firewall ports are still open from when we decommissioned our `6.5` QA machines. When I check the `splunkd.log` on the indexer I can see these events post configuring the listener: 01-24-2018 17:11:04.311 -0600 INFO TcpInputConfig - IPv4 port 9997 is reserved for splunk 2 splunk 01-24-2018 17:11:04.311 -0600 INFO TcpInputConfig - IPv4 port 9997 will negotiate s2s protocol level 3 01-24-2018 17:11:04.312 -0600 INFO TcpInputProc - Creating fwd data Acceptor for IPv4 port 9997 with Non-SSL You can see the contents of my `inputs.conf` from the btool output above. The content of my `outputs.conf` from my forwarder looks like this: [tcpout] defaultGroup = default-autolb-group [tcpout:default-autolb-group] server = indexer.domain.com:9997 [tcpout-server://indexer.domain.com:9997] The `splunkd.log` on my forwarder contains a lot of the following: 01-24-2018 17:59:06.807 -0600 WARN TcpOutputProc - Cooked connection to ip=10.2.1.12:9997 timed out 01-24-2018 17:59:07.136 -0600 INFO DC:DeploymentClient - channel=tenantService/handshake Will retry sending handshake message to DS; err=not_connected Which is showing the right IP and port but I don't understand why it's timing out. The firewall is configured properly because it hasn't been changed since we upgraded from 6.5 to 7.0 in this environment and we are using the same ports. Any thoughts, comments, or advice is greatly appreciated. Thank you.
