Hey@smstoyanov,

You can try using this app:
https://splunkbase.splunk.com/app/3723/

Let me know if this helps!!

i know that it works perfectly also the view over the processes and resource usage is good.
But i`m trying to bypass this because of the license.

I don't have a Docker in my system, is it able to send syslog ? if you don't want to use app, you can create your own app as long as sourcetypes are correct and you can index.

i already log all events on our docker infra but dont have tool which provide good view over the processes/usage on the docker hosts(memory/cpu usage and of course by process)
Probably will get in touch with outcoldsolutions because their container provide what we want.

have you checked scripted inputs in Splunk ?
I have a similar case that I collect information with shell script from hosts. Splunk forwarders just runs shell periodically and script writes processor, memory usage and other info. to STD-OUT that is read by forwarder and send to Indexer.
