Hi,

How we can extract time from the log event and then index ?

As Splunk shows different time stamp on indexer but time stamp in log event are different.

 

Please help.

Hi @pankajupadhyay,

probably Splunk cannot correctly recognize timestamps, so you have to give to Splunk some additional information, for a sourcetype:

  • TIME_FORMAT
  • TIME_PREFIX
  • MAX_TIMESTAMP_LOOKAHEAD
  • etc...

you can find more infos at https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/8.1.1/Data/Configuretimestamprecognition

If you share some sample of your data I could help you in this job.

Ciao.

Giuseppe
