Hello,

Hi,
The behavior you see is a Bug. i.e
SPL-78499:DC (deployment client) logging too verbose at default log levels
This Bug is expected to be addressed in coming releases 6.1 .
Kind Regards

and SC_windows_std_602 input.conf is :

[default]
evt_dc_name = \\server.domain

[WinEventLog:Application]
disabled = 0

[WinEventLog:Security]
disabled = 0

[WinEventLog:System]
disabled = 0'

SC_windows_IIS_test is not used anymore (it is empty)

here is the input for the conf_windows_IIS :

[monitor://L:\com\folder\...\*.log]
sourcetype=iis

index = test_index

[monitor://L:\com\folder\...\...\*.log]
sourcetype=iis

index = test_index


[monitor://L:\com\folder\...\...\...\*.log]
sourcetype=iis

index = test_index
recursive = true
