I am getting different sourcetype name in my logs. But I want the sourcetype name as per conf file.

Below are the screenshots of input.conf, props.conf & transforms.conf .

Please use btool to ensure no other files add settings for the sourcetype.

 

splunk btool --debug props list vclog | grep -v "system\/default"

 

What query created the output in the first screenshot?

@richgalloway  No luck!  But I confirm there is no other files and settings.
