Windows App and multiple indexes

bulliarda — Tue, 20 Apr 2010 21:34:03 GMT

Hello, I have multiple indexes because I want multiple retention policies. I want WinEventLog:Security to go to index A and keep it for 12 months and WinEventLog:System to go to index B and keep it for 2 months. I change it in the inputs.conf of my deployed clients and it works fine. However, now the Windows App doesn't work anymore. It seems that the app is only looking in a particular index (main ??). Does someone know how to do it?

Thanks.

The Windows app doesn't specify any index at all, so the default indexes of the user/role will be used. You could just add the new indexes to the default indexes for your role to make it work again.
