Hello,
How to blacklist application event Level "Information" on Windows 2012 servers.
Already tried:
[WinEventLog:Application]
blacklist = EventType=Information
sourcetype = applicationerrors
disabled = 0
index = osgpp
disabled = false
crcSalt=
[WinEventLog:Application]
blacklist = EventType=0
sourcetype = applicationerrors
disabled = 0
index = osgpp
disabled = false
crcSalt=
[WinEventLog://Application]
blacklist = Type="(Information)"
sourcetype = applicationerrors
disabled = 0
index = osgpp
disabled = false
crcSalt=<SOURCE>
Above fixed my issue
[WinEventLog://Application]
blacklist = Type="(Information)"
sourcetype = applicationerrors
disabled = 0
index = osgpp
disabled = false
crcSalt=<SOURCE>
Above fixed my issue
Try changing it to:
[WinEventLog://Application]
instead of:
[WinEventLog:Application]
Tried below and made sure that forwarder was restarted after both changes. Still not working. Still getting Information events.
our server are windows 2012
[WinEventLog://Application]
blacklist = Type=0
sourcetype = applicationerrors
disabled = 0
index = osgpp
disabled = false
crcSalt=<SOURCE>
and
[WinEventLog://Application]
blacklist = Type=Information
sourcetype = applicationerrors
disabled = 0
index = osgpp
disabled = false
crcSalt=<SOURCE>
The EventType filter is for 2003 and earlier. Use Type for 2008 and later. The Microsoft documentation says that the numeric value for Type "Information" is 4.

This needs to be deployed to all your forwarders and the Splunk forwarder instance on those servers must be restarted. Even so, only events that are forwarded AFTER the restart will be effected; "wrong" events forwarded before will still be there. You can use the delete
command to hide them.
Have you had a look at this question?
But which one of them is correct?
I tried both.
Forwarders must have restarted whenever i deployed these. I pushed these through deployment server.
