According to the logs and $SPLUNK_HOME/var/run/splunk/dispatch, the configured search executes successfully and produces results in csv format.

The cursor and CSV header files are written to HDFS filesystem (that means the HDFS connection works and permissions for splunk to write are in order).

Strange message in splunkd.log

/opt/splunk/var/log/splunk/splunkd.log

And Message from HadoopConnect.log:

"Field 'rmIP' is not presented in fields exported last time. last export fields: ['_time', 'src_ip', 'WT_cg_s', 'WT_co_f']", "value": "_time,rmIP,ipF,a_ip,…"

| fillnull value=XXX

using explicit field values for fillnull helped
i.e.

 | fillnull value=XXX field1, field2, etc.
