Linux DHCP feedback

[stefanlasiewski]

Nice App, unfortunately it spams the Splunk menus with a dozen additional entries, and doesn't use Nested menus! This App should try to nest the saved searches with Nested Menus.

See how here: http://splunk-base.splunk.com/answers/10664/organizing-searches-and-reports-and-views/10696

Also read the manual, which talks about how to organize a menu:

• http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/4.3.5/Developer/Step6BuildNavigation

I found out how to do this.

I am following the instructions written at Documentation > Splunk > Developing Dashboards, Views, and Apps for Splunk Web > Step 6: Build navig....

Navigate to the Search App, then navigate to Manager > User interface > Navigation menus. Click default. Add the following to the XML. It might need to go below the other saved searches

< divider />
< collection label="DHCP App">
< view name="DHCP App View" default="true" />
  < saved source="unclassified" match="dhcp" />
< /collection>

Note that I had to fudge the XML code a bit to make it appear correctly inside this post.

Thanks for the feedback. This app has fallen by the wayside a bit, but I appreciate the specific action items.

Thanks for the reply! I posted my own solution below. Not sure how to do that from the App, programmatically.
