Alerting

How to throttle Splunk alert configuration?

Hello 

I need some assistance please with the alert throttle functionality in splunk

 

Even though we have the  alert throttle enabled & suppressed for 60mins the alert still seems to generate a trigger every 10mins  @ 00:10, 00:20, 00:30, 00:40, and 00:50

I only want the 00:10 event to trigger & then suppress the 00:20, 00:30, 00:40 & 00:50 events.

 

Thank you in advance
Veeru

My answer was a passive-aggressive prod.  You need to ADD DETAIL.  Show us the entry in savedsearches.conf.
