Getting Data In

splunk and clamav logfile monitoring

I'm trying to configure Splunk to analyze logs coming from ClamAV.

I have a shared folder where the logs are coming in.

On the machine where the shared folder is located, I set the universalforwarder to monitor that folder with this command:

/opt/splunkforwarder/bin/splunk add monitor /shared/avlogs/ -index clamav -sourcetype clamav

Now it's happening that when I try to search

index="clamav" _raw="*FOUND*"

I don't get results everytime, but depends on the content of the logfile, like if the parsing was not done correctly. What am I missing?
