Hi all,
I imported entities using the Modules (in this case DA-IT-VIRTUALIZATION), altering the columns import to swap the e.g. hypervisor_id as Entity Alias instead of Entity Title, vice versa with hypervisor_name.
This worked fine.
But then after a while I noticed that ITSI 'discover' / auto-add the same entities, but not swapping the columns as I did previously, resulting in double the number of hypervisors than I have, but half with the hypervisor_id as the Entity Title.
Is there away to mitigate this? Ideally the subsequent searches would follow the same columns alterations, or is there a way to disable this auto-searching altogether?
Regards
Felix
As far as I've seen, there isn't an easy way to change the autodiscovery features outside of making sure that the data is already mapped to the model in the sort of way that you seem to be doing after the fact. However, I did find the documentation on how to disable the autodiscovery altogether. It may have already been solved in your environment, but I figure it might be helpful for Splunk posterity. 🙂
