How does Splunk know that snow.py is the main for the modular input, instead of one of the other scripts?</P> Mon, 16 Nov 2015 21:42:18 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/All-Apps-and-Add-ons/How-does-Splunk-know-which-script-to-run-for-a-modular-input/m-p/236972#M26704 wegscd 2015-11-16T21:42:18Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/All-Apps-and-Add-ons/How-does-Splunk-know-which-script-to-run-for-a-modular-input/m-p/236973#M26705 <P>you can go to /README/inputs.conf.spec.
