McAfee TA 2.0 inputs issues

Hi,

I use McAfee EPO 4.x and would like to import data into Splunk using Splunk McAfee TA 2.0

however I am seeing errors like

2014-07-22 17:07:20.442 server01:ERROR:Scheduler - Error while reading stanza=[dbmon-tail://mcafee_epo_4_db/mcafee_epo_4_db_myinputl]: com.splunk.config.SplunkConfigurationException: Error validating dbmonTail for monitor=dbmon-tail://mcafee_epo_4_db/mcafee_epo_4_db_myinputl: The column "AutoID" is not present in the result set with query = SELECT CAST([EPOEvents].[ReceivedUTC] as varchar) as.......

I've tried few variations without using 'AS' in 'SELECT' statement, however the timestamps are coming in wrong!

how to fix this?

This will be addressed in next maintenance release,

to fix this please replace the default

'output.timestamp.parse.format' and 'query' params in $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/Splunk_TA_mcafee/default/inputs.conf
with

output.timestamp.parse.format = yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss
query = SELECT CONVERT(VARCHAR(19), [EPOEvents].[ReceivedUTC], 120) as [timestamp], [EPOEvents].[AutoID], [EPOEvents].[ThreatName] as [signature], [EPOEvents].[ThreatType] as [threat_type], [EPOEvents].[ThreatEventID] as [signature_id], [EPOEvents].[ThreatCategory] as [category], [EPOEvents].[ThreatSeverity] as [severity_id], [EPOEventFilterDesc].[Name] as [event_description], [EPOEvents].[DetectedUTC] as [detected_timestamp], [EPOEvents].[TargetFileName] as [file_name], [EPOEvents].[AnalyzerDetectionMethod] as [detection_method], [EPOEvents].[ThreatActionTaken] as [action], [EPOEvents].[ThreatHandled] as [threat_handled], [EPOEvents].[TargetUserName] as [logon_user], [EPOComputerProperties].[UserName] as [user], [EPOComputerProperties].[DomainName] as [dest_nt_domain], [EPOEvents].[TargetHostName] as [dest_dns], [EPOEvents].[TargetHostName] as [dest_nt_host], [EPOComputerProperties].[IPHostName] as [fqdn], [dest_ip] = ( convert(varchar(3),convert(tinyint,substring(convert(varbinary(4),convert(bigint,([EPOComputerProperties].[IPV4x] + 2147483648))),1,1)))+'.'+convert(varchar(3),convert(tinyint,substring(convert(varbinary(4),convert(bigint,([EPOComputerProperties].[IPV4x] + 2147483648))),2,1)))+'.'+convert(varchar(3),convert(tinyint,substring(convert(varbinary(4),convert(bigint,([EPOComputerProperties].[IPV4x] + 2147483648))),3,1)))+'.'+convert(varchar(3),convert(tinyint,substring(convert(varbinary(4),convert(bigint,([EPOComputerProperties].[IPV4x] + 2147483648))),4,1))) ), [EPOComputerProperties].[SubnetMask] as [dest_netmask], [EPOComputerProperties].[NetAddress] as [dest_mac], [EPOComputerProperties].[OSType] as [os], [EPOComputerProperties].[OSServicePackVer] as [sp], [EPOComputerProperties].[OSVersion] as [os_version], [EPOComputerProperties].[OSBuildNum] as [os_build], [EPOComputerProperties].[TimeZone] as [timezone], [EPOEvents].[SourceHostName] as [src_dns], [src_ip] = ( convert(varchar(3),convert(tinyint,substring(convert(varbinary(4),convert(bigint,([EPOEvents].[SourceIPV4] + 2147483648))),1,1)))+'.'+convert(varchar(3),convert(tinyint,substring(convert(varbinary(4),convert(bigint,([EPOEvents].[SourceIPV4] + 2147483648))),2,1)))+'.'+convert(varchar(3),convert(tinyint,substring(convert(varbinary(4),convert(bigint,([EPOEvents].[SourceIPV4] + 2147483648))),3,1)))+'.'+convert(varchar(3),convert(tinyint,substring(convert(varbinary(4),convert(bigint,([EPOEvents].[SourceIPV4] + 2147483648))),4,1))) ), [EPOEvents].[SourceMAC] as [src_mac], [EPOEvents].[SourceProcessName] as [process], [EPOEvents].[SourceURL] as [url], [EPOEvents].[SourceUserName] as [logon_user], [EPOComputerProperties].[IsPortable] as [is_laptop], [EPOEvents].[AnalyzerName] as [product], [EPOEvents].[AnalyzerVersion] as [product_version], [EPOEvents].[AnalyzerEngineVersion] as [engine_version], [EPOEvents].[AnalyzerEngineVersion] as [dat_version], [EPOProdPropsView_VIRUSCAN].[datver] as [vse_dat_version], [EPOProdPropsView_VIRUSCAN].[enginever64] as [vse_engine64_version], [EPOProdPropsView_VIRUSCAN].[enginever] as [vse_engine_version], [EPOProdPropsView_VIRUSCAN].[hotfix] as [vse_hotfix], [EPOProdPropsView_VIRUSCAN].[productversion] as [vse_product_version], [EPOProdPropsView_VIRUSCAN].[servicepack] as [vse_sp], [EPOProdPropsView_ANTISPYWARE].[productversion] as [antispyware_version] FROM [EPOEvents] left join [EPOLeafNode] on [EPOEvents].[AgentGUID] = [EPOLeafNode].[AgentGUID] left join [EPOProdPropsView_ANTISPYWARE] on [EPOLeafNode].[AutoID] = [EPOProdPropsView_ANTISPYWARE].[LeafNodeID] left join [EPOProdPropsView_VIRUSCAN] on [EPOLeafNode].[AutoID] = [EPOProdPropsView_VIRUSCAN].[LeafNodeID] left join [EPOComputerProperties] on [EPOLeafNode].[AutoID] = [EPOComputerProperties].[ParentID] left join [EPOEventFilterDesc] on [EPOEvents].[ThreatEventID] = [EPOEventFilterDesc].[EventId] and (EPOEventFilterDesc.Language='0409') WHERE [EPOEvents].[AutoID] > 0 {{ AND [EPOEvents].$rising_column$ > ? }} ORDER BY [EPOEvents].[AutoID]

This worked for me with this format of timestamp (Aug 3 2012 8:17AM)

Sorry to tell you, but it seems your answer doesn't work. The timestamp is still wrong (index time)...
