Is there anyway to locate and edit an existing macro search from an App (SA-nix) in this case?
CPU_Exceeds_Percent_by_Host
Open in Search Edit
admin SA-nix Global
CPU_Under_Percent_by_Host
Open in Search Edit
admin SA-nix Global
Disk_Used_Exceeds_Perc_by_Host
Open in Search Edit
admin SA-nix Global
IO_Utilization_Exceeds_Threshold
Open in Search Edit
admin SA-nix Global
IO_Wait_Exceeds_Threshold

admin SA-nix Global
An example search macro from SA-nix. If I try to append it with function I got an error. Thoughts?
`CPU_Exceeds_Percent_by_Host("`_unix_alert_threshold_CPU_Exceeds_Percent_by_Host`")`
This results in:
Error in 'fields' command: Invalid argument: 'earliest=-30m'
`CPU_Exceeds_Percent_by_Host("`_unix_alert_threshold_CPU_Exceeds_Percent_by_Host`")` earliest=-30m
its not advisable to change the objects which are part of an app because when you upgrade the app, all your changes will be overwritten. You can write a different macro and use it in case needed.
However, macros are available on disk
$SPUNK_HOME/etc/apps/SA-nix/default/macros.conf
Copy the default macros to $SPUNK_HOME/etc/apps/SA-nix/local/macros.conf and make changes if you still require
