Getting Data In

Props manipulate date

Hello,

I have to index a log file that has only the timestamp HH:MM:SS ,

HH:MM:SS field1 field2 ...

whenever a new row is added i should merge the actual date with the log timestamp YY/MM/DD HH:MM:SS .

i wasted a whole day to combining props and transforms configuration without success, Anyone can help me to solve ?

Thanks

in your props.conf, can you try setting 

DETERMINE_TIMESTAMP_DATE_WITH_SYSTEM_TIME = True

How far of a skew are the event times you are looking at with the system time?

Hi @giuces,

Splunk already adds the current date to timestamp is there is no in the log. Can you describe more why your are trying to add? Maybe a sample data and props.conf will help.
