Hello,
is it possible to have mydirectory\*.log monitor stanza to route data to usual indexers (or any specific monitor stanza) AND another specific mydirectory\file.log to another specific _TCP_ROUTING ?
Thanks.
Yep, I'm pretty sure. If you "overlap" the same file within two separate stanzas it will get monitored only once.
Hi @splunkreal ,
it shoudl be possible using two _TCP_ROUTING items in the inputs.conf pointing to the two different destinations, obviously in different Indexers.
but in this way you pay twice the license because data is indexed twice.
for more infos see at https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/9.1.1/Forwarding/Routeandfilterdatad#Route_inputs_to_sp...
Ciao.

Hi @gcusello great thanks, however may it work if we set different index for the secondary stanza?
Hi @splunkreal ,
for my knowledge different Indexers, not indexes.
There's no sense to duplicate logs in two indexes of the same Indexers.
But you have to set the same index name beacuse you really set on index in the input stanza.
If you want to have a different index name on the second Indexers, you have to override this value on it.
Ciao.

I don't think you can monitor the same "base path" twice.
An ugly hack to walk around that is to use (hard/soft) links
Are you sure? The stanza is different yet... or we must detail all monitored logs?
Thanks! 🙂
