Hi All,

I have some of the messages being truncated in Splunk though all other similar messages are parsing perfectly. There is no error of Truncation in the logs. Messages are of 400 lines/event.

Props.conf(Indexer)

TRUNCATE = 0
MAX_EVENTS = 1000

Splunkd.log(Indexer) Error-

04-02-2020 14:48:57.391 +0200 WARN DateParserVerbose - Time parsed (Sun Sep 23 12:09:23 2012) is too far away from the previous event's time
(Thu Apr 2 14:48:56 2020) to be accepted. If this is a correct time, MAX_DIFF_SECS_AGO (3600) or MAX_DIFF_SECS_HENCE (604800) may be overly restrictive.
