Getting Data In

Is there any way to disable the Splunk Universal Forwarder to generate the dump file, because I want to generate the dump on demand?

Hi,

I have installed the Splunk universal forwarder to store logs from my IIS WebServer in Splunk.

The SplunkUniversalForwarder have executed some days with success, but after that, it begins to crash and generate a lot of dumps.

I want to disable the generation of the Dumps.

I have tried follow this post https://answers.splunk.com/answers/478637/how-to-stop-splunkdexe-from-creating-crash-dump-fi.html (mainly: http://superuser.com/questions/1069578/disable-werfault-exe-on-crashes-for-specific-processes-on-win...), but without success.

Is there any way to disable the Splunk universal forwarder to generate the Dump file, because I want to generate the Dump on demand?

Fernando.
