How to change the default of 10 lines per page in forwarder management?

[gbowden_pheaa]

Is there a way to change the default of "10 lines" in Forwarder Management? I find it extremely annoying that this page, unlike most other pages in Splunk, will not remember the last setting for this area. I have many more forwarders, applications, and server classes than 10, and it really slows me down when I have to add many new apps/server classes, which presently is often.

Yes there is a way but I would not recommend it as your changes would break during any upgrade. The entire page is control by javascript

$SPLUNK_HOME/share/splunk/search_mrsparkle/exposed/js/build/deploymentserverpage.js

If you search for the following in the file you can create custom per page.

{value:"10",label:_("10 Per Page").t()},{value:"20",label:_("20 Per Page").t()},{value:"50",label:_("50 Per Page").t()},{value:"100",label:_("100 Per Page").t()}

This doesn't answer your question exactly but need to find the piece of code which sets the default value. Unfortunately I don't have time do more for you, but I hope this gets you started.

Hello, I share this frustration. Has anything changed in two years to allow this configuration?
