Hi.
With some network devices to the server Splunk receives syslog-events. Time on these devices is set to GMT. Events come to a time shift at 4:00. Identified these events as a separate sourcetype - sourcetype_VG.

Prescribed in props.conf:

[sourcetype::sourcetype_VG]

TZ = UTC

No changes over time is not happening.

I would be glad of any help!

Hello

To set a staza by sourcetype you only need to type the sourcetype name, like:

[sourcetype_VG]
