If so what is the filesize limit? <BR /> Can the limit be increased to 250mb? If so how?</P> Wed, 02 May 2012 10:28:52 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Getting-Data-In/Is-there-a-filesize-limit-for-data-inputs/m-p/41219#M7638 theocudjoe 2012-05-02T10:28:52Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Getting-Data-In/Is-there-a-filesize-limit-for-data-inputs/m-p/41220#M7639 <P>See this answer here, hopefully it's helpful.</P> <P><A href="http://splunk-base.splunk.com/answers/22725/maximum-file-size">http://splunk-base.splunk.com/answers/22725/maximum-file-size</A></P> Wed, 02 May 2012 12:15:13 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Getting-Data-In/Is-there-a-filesize-limit-for-data-inputs/m-p/41220#M7639 sdaniels 2012-05-02T12:15:13Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Getting-Data-In/Is-there-a-filesize-limit-for-data-inputs/m-p/41221#M7640 <P>Thanks for the response but the filestatus tool did not provide any assistance in determining why the file does not load. any other ideas</P> Thu, 03 May 2012 08:26:37 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Getting-Data-In/Is-there-a-filesize-limit-for-data-inputs/m-p/41221#M7640 theocudjoe 2012-05-03T08:26:37Z
