Hi.
I have a requirement of a client, he has a file that indexes every day, but that file is modified at different times, for example modifications to lines 8 and 10000 at 20:00hrs, after modifications of lines 2 and 10100 at 22:00 hrs , Is it possible to index only the lines that have been modified?, at 2:00 am the file not change more.
No, Splunk cannot be configured to monitor individual changes inside a file. Just the entire file, or new lines at the end of a file.
So the only way to do this would be to write some kind of script that detects the changes and writes those to a new file that is monitored by Splunk.
