Getting Data In

splunk-perfmon.exe not run

I have a Splunk Deployment Server that pull the apps to UF. I have create an app WinPerfmon and inside of inputs.conf:

[perfmon://LogicalDisk]
counters = % Free Space; Free Megabytes
disabled = 0
instances = *
interval = 10
object = LogicalDisk
useEnglishOnly=true

## Memory
[perfmon://Memory]
counters = Available MBytes
disabled = 0
interval = 10
object = Memory
useEnglishOnly=true

The app is created on UF but splunk-perfmon.exe is running one second and after is closed and not send any data to the indexer. 

In splunkd.log:

07-08-2020 16:57:32.423 +0200 DEBUG ExecProcessor - Running: "C:\Program Files\HomeOffSec\bin\splunk-perfmon.exe" on PipelineSet 0

I have other app WinEventlog and splunk-wineventlog.exe is working.

UF has been installed as Windows local admin user. 

Could any help me please? Should I do something else in Windows?

Have you checked splunkd.log on the UF?

Hi @Mai_splunk ,

did you tried to deploy (eventually only in one server) the last version of Splunk_TA_Windows?

because I see some differences with you perfmon.

Ciao.

Hi @Mai_splunk ,

the inputs.conf in splunkbase is different from your:

your

[perfmon://LogicalDisk]
counters = % Free Space; Free Megabytes
disabled = 0
instances = *
interval = 10
object = LogicalDisk
useEnglishOnly=true

[perfmon://Memory]
counters = Available MBytes
disabled = 0
interval = 10
object = Memory
useEnglishOnly=true

TA_Windows:

[perfmon://LogicalDisk]
counters = % Free Space; Free Megabytes; Current Disk Queue Length; % Disk Time; Avg. Disk Queue Length; % Disk Read Time; Avg. Disk Read Queue Length; % Disk Write Time; Avg. Disk Write Queue Length; Avg. Disk sec/Transfer; Avg. Disk sec/Read; Avg. Disk sec/Write; Disk Transfers/sec; Disk Reads/sec; Disk Writes/sec; Disk Bytes/sec; Disk Read Bytes/sec; Disk Write Bytes/sec; Avg. Disk Bytes/Transfer; Avg. Disk Bytes/Read; Avg. Disk Bytes/Write; % Idle Time; Split IO/Sec
disabled = 1
instances = *
interval = 10
mode = multikv
object = LogicalDisk
useEnglishOnly=true

[perfmon://Memory]
counters = Page Faults/sec; Available Bytes; Committed Bytes; Commit Limit; Write Copies/sec; Transition Faults/sec; Cache Faults/sec; Demand Zero Faults/sec; Pages/sec; Pages Input/sec; Page Reads/sec; Pages Output/sec; Pool Paged Bytes; Pool Nonpaged Bytes; Page Writes/sec; Pool Paged Allocs; Pool Nonpaged Allocs; Free System Page Table Entries; Cache Bytes; Cache Bytes Peak; Pool Paged Resident Bytes; System Code Total Bytes; System Code Resident Bytes; System Driver Total Bytes; System Driver Resident Bytes; System Cache Resident Bytes; % Committed Bytes In Use; Available KBytes; Available MBytes; Transition Pages RePurposed/sec; Free & Zero Page List Bytes; Modified Page List Bytes; Standby Cache Reserve Bytes; Standby Cache Normal Priority Bytes; Standby Cache Core Bytes; Long-Term Average Standby Cache Lifetime (s)
disabled = 1
interval = 10
mode = multikv
object = Memory
useEnglishOnly=true

I understand that you're taking less counters, but mode = multikv is missing.

Ciao.

Yes, because i want monitor only some counters and not all of them. The selected mode there is not a problem to ingest the data, but i tried both and the same problem, no data ingested.

Thanks!
