I have a script containing ip and value.
Sh basic.sh>>sample.out
Know to get the logs i need to add this sample.out file to splunk like
/opt/splunkforwarder/bin/splunk add monitor sample.out.
Then i the files will comes into splunk..
But the problem is i want that script to be run everyone one hour..everytime adding that output file to splunk is not a good idea..Is there any way to schedule automatically or monitor that output file all the time...
Can anyone help me...
Thank you
Add the following to etc\system\local\inputs.conf
[monitor://path/to/your/file/outfile]
index=main
