Deployment Architecture

Forwarder stopped pushing performance data

Hi,

I had a completely working setup where forwarder was pushing data to UF successfully but it stopped pushing data a week earlier.
There is no error in splunkd.log which can explain the reason.

How do I fix it?

All other indexes are working fine. It's just that performance counters are not pushed. Registry values are fine.

Hi siddharthmis,
only three foolish questions:

  • forwarder time and date are the same of Indexers?
  • did you checked if you're receiving logs in _internal index?
  • surely you checked connection using telnet (telnet indexer_IP 9997).

Bye.

Hi siddharthmis,
do you mean forwarder pushed data to another forwarder (UF) ? or forwarder sending data to indexer and now it does not send data anymore?
