I need to reindex a data from one of my DB Connect inputs. How do you change the checkpoint value? It's version 2.4.0.

Thanks!

Hi @TBeekley,

You can change checkpoint value in $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/splunk_app_db_connect/local/inputs.conf , in this file find your DB Input monitor stanza and change tail_rising_column_checkpoint_value parameter value, it stores checkpoint value and then you need to restart splunk so that splunk will consider new checkpoint value which you have given.

I hope this helps.

Thanks,
Harshil
