How to ingest csv file into Heavy forwarder instance and forward data to a peer index

[Sabareesh]

I need to get the csv file into HF and forward it to an indexer

How do i add csv file to HF...Do i need to create stanza in inputs.conf to monitor the file.If pls let me know the stanza.

The stanza will monitor the temp.csv file in HF & forward it to indexer.

The temp.csv can be placed manually or pushed through any script to that path.

Below may help. 

For Linux :

[monitor:///opt/splunk/var/log/splunk/temp.csv]
index = main
sourcetype = csv
disabled = 0
crcSalt = <SOURCE>

For Windows

[monitor://C:\splunk\var\log\splunk\temp.csv]
index = main
sourcetype = csv
disabled = 0
crcSalt = <SOURCE>

Thanks for the Stanza.

I want to know how to place a temp.csv file into that path?
