Does anyone know of a list of component codes and their meanings for at least _internal and _audit? I have asked instructors and Splunk direct with no help so far.

I'm not sure what you're looking for; are you looking for Splunk components or the default indexes in Splunk? Please use the links provided below for reference.

Thank you Kiran. What I am looking for is the meaning of each component code found. For instance If I run - 

index=_*
| stats count by component index log_level

I see many component codes with Warning or Error. The question becomes what does that component code mean and if there is a warning or error what is the action needed to correct or tune? I do not see any documentation in Splunk to that effect and have asked Splunk PS, Splunk Instructors and Splunk Support. No answer yet.

I want to build dashboards and associated alerts to help me know the stability and status of the platform.

Thank you!
