Getting Data In

Dell PowerScale Add-on for Splunk - Configuration

I am trying to fetch the Dell PowerScale metrics data into splunk via HF. I have installed the Add-On on the HF, but I don't see the port configuration in it.

By default, it should connect with 443, but the dell power scale machine is listening on 8443 port. 
I don't see the port option in the UI, how to get the data into splunk?

In addition to @PrewinThomas reply below regarding changing the port in const.py, it would be worth emailing the developers of the app (neha@crestdatasys.com) and explaining this requirement so that they can build this in to future versions of the app, otherwise when there are new versions of the app you will need to overwrite the const.py file each time.

Powerscale default api port is 8080, which is added by default to your inputs.

If you are using custom port, one workaround you can perform is,

Go to Splunk\etc\apps\TA_EMC-Isilon\bin\const.py

Edit below setting with your custom port, restart splunk and try again.

ISILON_PORT = "8080"
