Hi,
Windows UF stopped sending events. I saw this event in _internal index
'message from ""C:\Program Files\SplunkUniversalForwarder\bin\splunk-wmi.exe"" Clean shutdown completed.'
The UF version is 9.2.1
What does it mean, and how to avoid it from happening again?
Hi @zafar,
The event you're seeing indicates that the WMI Input on your Universal Forwarder (UF) has performed a clean shutdown. This typically happens when the Splunk service is stopped/restarted OR can be if you have your WMI input setup on an interval - in which case it is notifying you that it has completed.
Here are some steps you can take to investigate further:
If you continue to experience issues, please provide more details about your environment, including the Splunk version, operating system, and any relevant configuration settings. This will help in further troubleshooting.

Hi @zafar ,
wmi is a way to extract events from a remote windows system, are you speaking of UF stopping events of the receiver or of monitored system?
could you better describe how this Uf is working?
Ciao.
