I want to map this index to the app... How should I do this using splunk web? <BR /> If I cannot do this using splunk web, how else should I do it? </P> Fri, 27 Mar 2015 17:56:50 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Dashboards-Visualizations/Mapping-an-index-to-an-app/m-p/117412#M44339 sushmitha_mj 2015-03-27T17:56:50Z Re: Mapping an index to an app https://community.splunk.com/t5/Dashboards-Visualizations/Mapping-an-index-to-an-app/m-p/117413#M44340 <P>What you mean when you say your want to map the index with the app? You want to make the index only accessible from the app?</P> Fri, 27 Mar 2015 18:25:07 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Dashboards-Visualizations/Mapping-an-index-to-an-app/m-p/117413#M44340 somesoni2 2015-03-27T18:25:07Z Re: Mapping an index to an app https://community.splunk.com/t5/Dashboards-Visualizations/Mapping-an-index-to-an-app/m-p/117414#M44341 <P>No.. I want the app to use this index instead of default index and when I go to the splunk web-&gt; index name, I want to see this app name instead of "system". Basically, I want the app to populate data from this index. </P> Fri, 27 Mar 2015 18:39:15 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Dashboards-Visualizations/Mapping-an-index-to-an-app/m-p/117414#M44341 sushmitha_mj 2015-03-27T18:39:15Z Re: Mapping an index to an app https://community.splunk.com/t5/Dashboards-Visualizations/Mapping-an-index-to-an-app/m-p/117415#M44342 <P>You might need to create indexes.conf and configure under your apps default folder manually.</P> Fri, 27 Mar 2015 18:57:10 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Dashboards-Visualizations/Mapping-an-index-to-an-app/m-p/117415#M44342 sanjay_shrestha 2015-03-27T18:57:10Z Re: Mapping an index to an app https://community.splunk.com/t5/Dashboards-Visualizations/Mapping-an-index-to-an-app/m-p/117416#M44343 <P>Does it need some kind of a restart, to reflect on the splunk web? <BR /> Do I have to make any changes to the index files? </P> Fri, 27 Mar 2015 19:14:24 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Dashboards-Visualizations/Mapping-an-index-to-an-app/m-p/117416#M44343 sushmitha_mj 2015-03-27T19:14:24Z Re: Mapping an index to an app https://community.splunk.com/t5/Dashboards-Visualizations/Mapping-an-index-to-an-app/m-p/117417#M44344 <P>Yes it would require Splunk restart. </P> Fri, 27 Mar 2015 19:25:15 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Dashboards-Visualizations/Mapping-an-index-to-an-app/m-p/117417#M44344 sanjay_shrestha 2015-03-27T19:25:15Z Re: Mapping an index to an app https://community.splunk.com/t5/Dashboards-Visualizations/Mapping-an-index-to-an-app/m-p/117418#M44345 <P>What do you mean by changes to index files?</P> Fri, 27 Mar 2015 19:25:38 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Dashboards-Visualizations/Mapping-an-index-to-an-app/m-p/117418#M44345 sanjay_shrestha 2015-03-27T19:25:38Z Re: Mapping an index to an app https://community.splunk.com/t5/Dashboards-Visualizations/Mapping-an-index-to-an-app/m-p/117419#M44346 <P>How should I restart? <BR /> Yes, I mean changes to index files? </P> Fri, 27 Mar 2015 19:28:41 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Dashboards-Visualizations/Mapping-an-index-to-an-app/m-p/117419#M44346 sushmitha_mj 2015-03-27T19:28:41Z Re: Mapping an index to an app https://community.splunk.com/t5/Dashboards-Visualizations/Mapping-an-index-to-an-app/m-p/117420#M44347 <P>Settings &gt; Server Controls &gt; Restart Splunk</P> Fri, 27 Mar 2015 19:45:39 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Dashboards-Visualizations/Mapping-an-index-to-an-app/m-p/117420#M44347 sanjay_shrestha 2015-03-27T19:45:39Z Re: Mapping an index to an app https://community.splunk.com/t5/Dashboards-Visualizations/Mapping-an-index-to-an-app/m-p/117421#M44348 <P>Thank you so much...
