We have a splunk forwarder installed in a server where the logs were pushed to splunk cloud.  Without any restart or any interruption, the splunk service has stopped

Found the Below Log in uf.

WARN DispatchReaper [ DispatchReaper] - Received shutdown signal during startup reaping and did not complete all reaping tasks. Reaping will be performed upon next startup.

There are no other logs related to the shutdown of splunk service.

Any idea what could be the reason for the service shutdown?

Hi @varshini_3141,

are there other messages, near the one you shared?

which operative systema are you running in?

Anyway, the fastest solution is to open a case to Splunk Support (sending them a diag that they can use to analyze your system).

Ciao.

Giuseppe
