title: Running kafka connect in Distributed mode?
body: <p>I have a total of 3 VM's(CloudVPS). Each of them has java, confluent open source installed on them. In VM1 I am running 3 processes of Splunk-sink-connector which reads from different topics and are running on different ports. And using REST calls I posted JSON configuration to each of them. </p>
  
  <p>Since I am running in distributed mode I want to take advantage of other 2 VM's also. Can anyone please tell me what to do, to add other 2 VM's to those 3 processes to achieve parallel processing.</p>
