How to create a report on license usage and capacity?

Hi,

I see lots of examples for reporting splunk license usage. Is there any way to show usage along with my licensing capacity?

I did something similar some time ago. You can have a look at it. Probably better (faster) to use the rest command to get the information than the license usage log, as hinted in the comments.

Hope this helps somewhat,

Manager > License

Scroll down to the available and used graphic.

Deployment Manager > License Usage is also handy because it has a better graphic, but it does not show you your licensed volume - I figured it assumes you should know that already.

Thanks, but I want to write my own. There's no way to show license usage vs your allocation?
