How to Properly Read results.csv.gz From Dispatch

Builder

After a successful saved-search run, the results can be found on the directory `$SPLUNK_HOME/var/run/splunk/dispatch/scheduler__...` 

We know that the result of the search is named `results.csv.gz` 

How do we read this in the OS level apps? Untarring it using `tar -xzvf` does not work.

 

Thanks

It's not a tarball so tar won't help.  It's just a CSV file compressed with gzip.  You should be able to view it using gunzip -c results.csv.gz | more
