Splunk App for Cisco UCS not collecting data

Hi,
I just installed the Splunk App for Cisco UCS and configured the managers.csv and credentials.csv as mentioned in the readme. Also copied the apps to SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/ section, however, there's no data collection happening. I also tried executing Collect.py with the UCSM instance and the script didn't return anything nor did it thrown any errors.

credentials.csv contents:
realm,username,password
dev,ucs-local\admin,password

managers.csv contents:
server,realm
ipaddress,dev

This ucs instance is configured for local authentication. please let me know what am i missing here?

Thanks

Try running it at the command-line with INFO logging level:

-- if using lightweight forwarder:

$SPLUNK_HOME/bin/splunk cmd python $SPLUNK_HOME/Splunk_TA_CiscoUCS/bin/Collect.py -l INFO topSystem

If using Universal + system Python:

python $SPLUNK_HOME/Splunk_TA_CiscoUCS/bin/Collect.py -l INFO topSystem

And if you are running the TA on a Heavy Forwarder--let me know, could also be related.

Maybe your credential line should be:
dev,ucs-local\admin,password

So ucs-local is auth domain and admin is the user.

Actually, it looks like the forum posting code is stripping the \ (slash) between ucs-local and admin, so you probably already have that right.
