Hi All,
I was able to create 3 MSSQL connections using Generic Driver successfully. But the 4th connection fails with "DBX Server did not respond within 310 seconds, please make sure it is started and listening on 9998 port or consult documentation for details.
HTTPConnectionPool(host='127.0.0.1', port=9998): Read timed out. (read timeout=310)"
On log, I can see "Prelogin error: host 172.xx.x.xx port 1433 Error reading prelogin response: Connection timed out (Read failed)"
I am using DB Connect v 3.1.4.
Kindly advise how to resolve this issue. Thank you

I am not sure, if this is your solution, but with DB Connect input, you can set a timeout (the time, Splunk waits for an answer, after query is fired). It is possible, that your data base is very large, which needs some more time to get a response. At first i would just try playing around with the time out value (in seconds).

This issue has been resolved by enabling the application on firewall, previously only the ports were enabled.

This issue has been resolved by adding the application to whitelist on firewall, previously only the ports were enabled.
