Hi -

My Name is Basudeba Mandal, I have started using Splunk couple of months back. I have understood the basic concept of log indexing, Alert creation etc.
In order to understand and implement how to get system resource utilization (CPU,Memory,FileSystem) details onto splunk indexer, I installed Splunk app for *nix on the indexer. However struggling to get the clear knowledge about how to get system resource details onto the splunk app for *nix .
I would appreciate if anybody can help me understand what configuration will be required for achieving above task.

Many Thanks,
Basudeba Mandal
