I am in the middle of a Splunk migration. One of the tasks is to moved data from some sourcetypes onto the new servers using the | collect index=aws sourcetype=* command.
The numbers added up after running checks. I run the same checks again a day later and the numbers no longer match up.

I've set the following stanza within the indexes.conf file on the deployment server. Also the index only contains 22gb of data. Can you help?
[aws]
coldPath = $SPLUNK_DB\$_index_name\colddb
enableDataIntegrityControl = 0
enableTsidxReduction = 0
homePath = $SPLUNK_DB\$_index_name\db
maxTotalDataSizeMB = 512000
thawedPath = $SPLUNK_DB\$_index_name\thaweddb
