DBConnect indexing

[ccsfdave]

Greetings,

Pure and simple question, how can I get DBConnect to index data? I followed the Deploy and Use DBConnect line by line but nothing I do seems to index the data. I guess the ideal would be to run a SQL query so that I may limit what needs to be indexed - but at this point, I'll take anything!

I have a column (revisionID) for the value that increments.

I feel like I have spent a long time trying to figure this out and have my ducks in a row, but just can't get it working.

Any help would be very much appreciated.

Dave

Can you post your .conf file? Also, what are you seeing in your dbx.log and jbridge.log?

Hi, it's the Database Inputs button on the far right. You're really setting up a fancy Splunk input, see http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/DBX/latest/DeployDBX/Configuredatabasemonitoring for more detail.

I am not sure why it wasn't working before because I had some database inputs previously, I deleted those and recreated some, now it seems to be working. Odd.

Thanks for the help!
