HI,

Yes it is definitely possible to monitor logs via splunk, provided that you know that location of the logs that you want to monitor, following is the way you can configure it in Splunk.

  1. Open Splunk in your Browser.
  2. Click on ADD DATA.
  3. Click on MONITOR
  4. Click on Files and Directories
  5. Select your log path, (Make sure you select Continuously monitor.)

Hope This helps 🙂

Regards,
Neel

Is this what you are looking for? If not, I think we need a bit more information about what your infrastructure looks like.
