I have got a solution:

default volume size is 5 GB in splunk for each of the container, either you need to increase the volume size (for path /var/lib/docker/volumes path on host machine of the docker containers ) or reduce the parameter value to lower the size in server.conf of each of the container:

refer below thread for more details:

adding few more details:
When I upload the data from Splunk UI, it notifies that data is successfully uploaded, however
indexed data doesn't reflect in Splunk indexed data path opt/splunk/var/lib/splunk/spice-index/db and hence not searchable from splunk UI. Please help how to make the data searchable:

Index used: default and custom (both same issue)
search criteria: all time
splunk docker container: version store/splunk/splunk:7.3  developer licence
file size : 500 KB file type .log
browser: tried with chrome and IE
