Getting Data In

mcatalog doesn't work (at least not with the Add-On for Microsoft Windows)

The command recommended by the docs to view all metrics in all indexes is:

| mcatalog values(metric_name)

But with Splunk Enterprise 7.1.2 and the Add-On for Microsoft Windows, this shows nothing.

I guess a larger question is: Is anyone using metric indexes for anything? Most of the apps I've seen have agents that produce EVENTS that contain numeric values in fields, and they then use these events for their calculations.

Same issue here in 7.1.2 with the Linux addon collecting metrics from OS X.
