Data Summary not reflecting on Dashboard

Hello Folks,

 

Setup 2 RHEL EC2 instances, with Splunk & UF configured on them. I added monitors as well as the Splunk server in UF but still the "sources" section shows waiting status.

Can someone please suggest what's wrong ?

I’ve noticed that the data summary isn’t showing up correctly on the dashboard. It seems like the information isn’t updating or syncing as expected, which makes it a bit difficult to track things accurately, especially when reviewing content performance like printable comic templates. Has anyone else experienced this issue.

Thanks for the reply. My Splunk setup is new so I am not fully aware which index data is going to. Perhaps it would be the main ?

 

If I run this below query, i do not see anything.

Hi @pnikhade 

Are you seeing any data when searching in your Splunk Instance? Do you know what indexes the data is supposed to be sending to? If you can see it with index=<yourIndex> then that will atleast confirm the data is arriving.

If you dont know which index it is going to then you can check the inputs.conf stanzas of your Universal Forwarder, or perhaps you can run the following to show you which sourcetypes you have in various indexes:

|metasearch index=* | stats values(sourcetype) by index
