Hi team,

We had some issues with the Splunk forwarder which was not sending data to Splunk. After restart of the service we started to see only part of the logs. 

Logs which we are able to see are from: DNS index

Logs which we cannot see are from MS_AD index and are related to Domain Controller logs. 

 

From the debug log I can see below lines:

Does the above log means that the logs are indexed and will be shown soon in Splunk?
