Hi Every one,
I have upgraded my splunk to 7.2 I am having issues in scheduling alerts. I have saved alert before upgrade which is not being scheduled. The next scheduled time is none. I created new alert to check if it is working. But it also same. For some reason the alerts are not scheduling at all. Cron expression I am using is */15 * * * * to run every 15 min. Is it a know issue on splunk 7.2?

Please help to resolve this friends.
