Splunk Search

Can we run multiple saved queries over the same periods at once?

Hi, I have 79 reports and I want to run those reports over last 30 days.

Can I run 79 reports all at once and saved the results into any form of excel file?

Should I just do one query at a time for all 79 reports?

Thanks,

Be warned that each query ran consumes 1 cpu core by default. So running 79 of them concurrently will in theory consume 79 cpu cores concurrently. Your role also constricts how many searches you can run concurrently. You may also slam your indexers which may lead to skipped searches. I would advise against running them all concurrently

Whats the purpose of wanting to run 79 reports and output them in Excel format?

I want to run them because I haven’t gotten to keep them running for 4 weeks in a row.

So i just want to query all the use cases for the last 30 days.

So if it is infeasible to do them concurrently, can i do them sequentially without me clicking on each saved report?

I'm not sure I understand your use case, but if you insist on doing this then yeah you can run them sequentially. I don't know your hardware or the size of your data, but you can probably run a few concurrently
