Error listing accelerated data models - ResponseNotReady

[bruceclarke]

All,

We are having an issue where one of our Splunk indexers is crashing occasionally. The error we see in the log file says that we are hitting a ResponseNotReady error when listing "accelerated data models," but we don't have any data models on the indexer.

I'm happy to provide more details, but really I'm just wondering if anyone else had seen or resolved this issue? Any good thoughts on debugging strategies here?

The error log is below for those curious.

Thanks!

Running Splunk on Windows? This error is likely due to Splunk being unable to talk to itself. It's a known issue with Windows, see:

Not on Windows. RHEL.

I think I'm seeing the same issue.
