MAX_EVENTS in props.conf not working

Hi everyone,

We have the following Splunk configuration:

  • Splunk Cloud instance (managed)
  • Universal Forwarder
  • Monitoring log

We need to index event logs with more than 256 lines.
props.conf (located at: SplunkUniversalForwarder\etc\system\local) has the following configuration:

[esb]
disabled = false
TRUNCATE = 0
LINE_BREAKER = ^.{4}-.{2}-.{2}\s.*
SHOULD_LINEMERGE = true
MAX_EVENTS = 100000

At search time, events appear truncated at max of 257 lines so, I suppose, that MAX_EVENTS props.conf isn't working.

How can i solve this issue?

Thanks

These are Indexer configurations, not UF configurations. They need to be deployed to your Indexer tier inside of Splunk Cloud. You will probably need to open a support ticket to get that done. They are in the wrong place.
