    <title>topic How to bulk upload data using inputs.conf? in Getting Data In</title>
    <link>https://community.splunk.com/t5/Getting-Data-In/How-to-bulk-upload-data-using-inputs-conf/m-p/330625#M61280</link>
    <description>&lt;P&gt;I'm trying to batch upload many files on my windows computer (some &amp;gt;150mb) using an inputs.conf file.&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;I have the inputs.conf file saved in C:\Program Files\Splunk\etc\apps\search\local&lt;BR /&gt;
The contents of the file are&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;PRE&gt;&lt;CODE&gt;[batch://C:\Temp\Data\Sample\*]
index=test3
# host_segment=3
sourcetype=access_combined
recursive=true
move_policy = sinkhole
&lt;/CODE&gt;&lt;/PRE&gt;

&lt;P&gt;The data I want to upload is saved in C:\Temp\Data\Sample\&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;I have the index test3 created. When I log into Splunk the index is still empty. &lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;Any help to fix this?&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi there,&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;try to search &lt;CODE&gt;all time&lt;/CODE&gt; or use this quick search SPL &lt;CODE&gt;| tstats count WHERE index=test3&lt;/CODE&gt; to see if you get events. Also check &lt;CODE&gt;index=_internal&lt;/CODE&gt; for any warnings or errors related to &lt;CODE&gt;c:\temp\data\sample&lt;/CODE&gt; &lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;cheers, MuS&lt;/P&gt;</description>
