Hi All,

I would like to execute a CLI command (to start/stop Splunkd) using a button (onclick) in a XML/HTML Splunk Dashboard.

How can do it?

Many thanks for the support.

Best regards
Antonio

Hi,

If you are trying to start/stop splunkd for a forwarder maybe, take a look at this application -
https://splunkbase.splunk.com/app/2775/

Or, there is already provision in splunk to restart from ui.
Click on Settings > Server controls
