What is the best way to learn Splunk from somebody with mainframe background?

I have a strong experience with mainframe development and would like to learn Splunk.
I wonder what kind of minimum knowledge is required to successfully learn and use the product.

Thanks

Mainframe or not, see this recent Splunk Answers posting about the best way to learn Splunk as a motivated newbie. It is full of great resources and advice.
