Monitoring Splunk

cpu and memory usage consumed by a splunk dashboard?

My splunk infrastructure is in Linux.

Suddenly One of my Splunk dashboard consumes almost 20 mins. Earlier it used to consume around 2 mins. I haven't increased the time span recently or modified the dashboard queries for sure.

Is there any way that I can check the cpu and memory usage for that particullar dashboard? If there is a way is it in the linux server or I can check that in splunk search head itself?

The Distributed Management Console has a dashboard for a similar search.

It's under the Search Menu -> Activitiy -> Search Usage Statistics : Deployment under the title "Long Running Searches"

Also, Search Menu -> Activity -> Search Activity : Deployment under the title "Top 20 Memory-Consuming Searches"

It has a bunch of other useful dashboards.

Also you can inspect using search job inspector
Like where your search query took longer execution time and all that information.

I hope this helps you!
