Getting Data In

addition of log files to already configured input path

spatil
Path Finder

Hi ,

I have below configuration in inputs .conf [monitor:C:\Program Files\Splunk\etc\apps\sampleApp\samplelogs]

I have 2 folders containing csv log files under sampleLogs. Thsese folders are already indexed.

Now, I added one more folder containing log files (say sample3)under samplelogs folder. I restarted splunk to get newly added files indexed. But, those newly added files are not indexed. Index size and number of events for index is still same.

What is the wrong here ? How can I add new input files to already indexed folder?

regards. S

solved. Added below line in inputs.conf crcSalt =C:\Program Files\Splunk\etc\apps\sampleApp\samplelogs

"C:\Program Files\Splunk\etc\apps\sampleApp\samplelogs" is source for log files
