I have deployed SplunK_TA_Windows and setup monitoring for Applicatiom, System ,Security, HardwareEvents and Setup winevents.I am missing logs from Setup and HardwareEvents ,below is the way I setup the Monitorings,

[WinEventLog:HardwareEvents]
disabled = 0
start_from = oldest
current_only = 0
checkpointInterval = 5
index=xyz

[WinEventLog:HardwareEvents]
disabled = 0
start_from = oldest
current_only = 0
checkpointInterval = 5
index=xyz

Any help how to troubleshoot it and get data indexed into splunk???

current_only = 0
checkpointInterval = 5
index=xyz


[WinEventLog://HardwareEvents]
disabled = 0
start_from = oldest
current_only = 0
checkpointInterval = 5
