Hi,

I have an XML file with multiple tags, I want to split it into multiple events. What are the configuration need to add in props.conf file

Here is the example,


INFO 2015-01-08 10:16:49  
<V_XML Version="2.0" Direction="Response">  
    <Enquiry >
    <Result />    
    <3DSID>...</3DSIDID>   
    <CHAID>...</CHAID>   
    <CHADD>...</CHADD>    
    <EC>...</EC>
    </Enquiry>
</V_XML>
-------------------
INFO 2015-01-08 10:16:50 
<V_XML Version="2.0" >
     <Transaction >
        <CHAID>...</CHAID>
        <CHADD>...</CHADD>
        <Amt>...</Amt>
        <Currency>...</Currency>
        <EC>...</EC>
        <ExpiryD>......</ExpiryD>
        <MerchantRef>...</MerchantRef>

Try something like this for your props.conf (on Indexer/Heavy Forwarder)

[YourSourceType]
SHOULD_LINEMERGE=false
LINE_BREAKER=([\r\n]+)\w+\s+\d{4}-\d{2}-\d{2}\s+\d{2}:\d{2:}\d{2}
TIME_FORMAT=%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S
TIME_PREFIX=^\w+\s+
MAX_TIMESTAMP_LOOKAHEAD=20

Splunk documentation has good information on LINE_BREAKER. The topic http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/6.3.0/Data/Configureeventlinebreaking is a good starting point.

Thanks soni... I am understand it, the line break based on time stamp.
