Detect archive job

Hi

I configured an archiving policy and I would like to notice when logs are archived. Is there any way to do so? I guess if an archive job is logged as system log, I can detect it in _internal index.

Thank you

Yes, the _internal log is your friend in this case.   This search should get you started.  Note that Splunk freezes/archives buckets rather than logs.  Any given log file may be in multiple buckets and a bucket may contain data from multiple sources.  It depends on your configuration.

index=_internal BucketMover component=BucketMover "freeze succeeded"
