      <title>Tuning my linux_secure sourcetype</title>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;All, &lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;I am seeing parsing queue slow downs when large sets of linux_secure data comes in. After talking with support we decided that the default timestamp of "auto" was a bad idea for us. So I am rewriting the props.conf file for linux_secure&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;PRE&gt;&lt;CODE&gt;[linux_secure2]
DATETIME_CONFIG =
LINE_BREAKER = ([\r\n]+)
MAX_TIMESTAMP_LOOKAHEAD = 27
NO_BINARY_CHECK = true
REPORT-syslog = syslog-extractions
SHOULD_LINEMERGE = false
TIME_FORMAT = %Y-%m-%dT%H:%m:%S.%q
TIME_PREFIX = ^
TZ = GMT
category = Operating System
description = Format for the /var/log/secure file containing all security related messages on a Linux machine
disabled = false
pulldown_type = true
&lt;/CODE&gt;&lt;/PRE&gt;

&lt;P&gt;How ever when I run this, all my events come stamped at 4:00. Any idea where I went wrong? &lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;Here is an example log&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;PRE&gt;&lt;CODE&gt;2019-12-17T23:01:36.259901+00:00 ssomehost.somedomain.local sudo:   ambari : TTY=unknown ; PWD=/var/lib/ambari-agent ; USER=root ; ENV=PATH=/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/lib/ambari-server/*:/usr/hdp/current/hadoop-client/bin:/usr/lib64/qt-3.3/bin:/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/opt/chef/bin:/var/lib/ambari-agent ; COMMAND=/usr/bin/test -f /disk11
&lt;/CODE&gt;&lt;/PRE&gt;</description>
