Hi Splunkers,

Has anyone seen this or something similar?  We are collecting Windows Events Logs from Windows servers via a logging tool and they are being forwarded to a Splunk HF.  Due to the logging system format, Splunk is not parsing the fields automatically. 

Here is a sample event:

 

Jun 11 12:00:08 LOGGING-SERVER.domain.com 1 2020-06-11T19:00:03.529Z WINSVR001 - - - [Originator@6876 eventid="4624" task="Logon" keywords="Audit Success" level="Information" channel="Security" opcode="Info" eventrecordid="383694869" providername="Microsoft-Windows-Security-Auditing"] An account was successfully logged on.

We are using Splunk Add-on for Microsoft Windows 8.0.  Is it possible to modify the existing conf files to have the fields parsed?  Using the add-on with all the defined fields will integrate with CIM and ES nicely. I'm trying to avoid reinventing the wheel and doing a brute force regex on the whole event.

If you're up to the challenge, I'm looking for:

-Is it possible to modify the Splunk Add-on for Microsoft Windows 8.0 to recognize the above wineventlog format?

-Can some help me with the regex to parse all the wineventlog fields and values?

 

I appreciate the help in advance.

 

Thanks,

H
