Splunk on its own is "just" a data analytics platform. But if you want to analyze data you first gotta have it. Splunk can ingest data from a plethora of different sources (and has some own add-ons that can capture metrics from the servers) but we have no way of knowing what kind of data you have in your installation.

And BTW it's not a good practice to send events to the main index. If this is your first ever lab Splunk installation it can be understandable but in production it definitely shouldn't happen. You would want your indexes configured so that you can manage your data reasonably.

We cannot tell what data is being stored in your "main" index. You'd have to describe what type of data it is, before asking the meaning of the field values. It would be helpful to have names of apps and reporting services, and then hopefully someone in the community will have experience with it.
