Getting Data In

Information on *.conf files

Hi All,

I have a very basic doubt with respect to all the *.conf files.

I have transforms.conf , props.conf and alert_actions.conf file in which I have some config written. But all these *.conf files are part of an App which i have created myself.

I know by default we can do all the changes and store it in ~splunk/etc/system/local.

But i want to do all the customizations and ship it as part of an App which i have developed and it should be global.

All your inputs are welcome.
