misteryuku,

What version of Splunk are you running? - If it is the free version you will not have access to alerting, as per the Splunk comparison table available here...

http://www.splunk.com/view/how-to-get-splunk/SP-CAAADFV

If you are unsure, you can navigate to the "Manager" and then the "Licensing" section (this will appear in the top-right panel within the manager view). Here it will say something like, "Free license group", in large green font, at the top of the page. If you have a paid for license (i.e. Enterprise), it will say something like, "Enterprise license group".

Hope this helps

Regards,

OK, no worries.. there was no rush, as I say it helps others (those looking for questions to answer, and those looking for answers to questions) 🙂
