Splunk for Nagios Configuration

Hi,
I am currently trying to get the app SplunkForNagios to send alerts to Nagios. I think that most of my configuration is correct but I can't find what should be put in "WWW=splunk (ie. url of splunk search head)". What should I put in the place of "splunk"? Where can I find this information?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Jamie

Hi Jamie 🙂

just replace the word 'splunk' with the hostname or fqdn of your splunk instance, ie. the url you are using for your Splunk GUI 🙂

Hope this helps, and please vote up and/or mark as answered if this has answered your question.

Thanks.
This answer seems coherant with what I have found. I replaced "splunk" with local because the search head is local. This seems to work fine.
Thanks for your reply.
