Hi all,
We're migrating from Splunk Connect for Kubernetes to OpenTelemetry Collector (otel) and noticed several differences, which are breaking our dashboards.
For example, to get the pods information (k8sObjects) from the otel collector, we have to search them with
sourcetype="kube:object:pods"
However from Splunk Connect it's
sourcetype="kube:objects:pods"
Notice the plural in objects.
Another example is the pod field, which is different in the otel collector:
Splunk Connect: pod::*$STRING*
Otel: source::*$STRING*
Is there a way how to align the Otel Collector to the above mentioned format? Or there some sort of list of the complete differences between otel and Splunk Connect?
We have quite a lot productive dashboards and report and it would take big effort to change/check every single of them.
Thanks much for help in advance.
Stefan
