Can I change the splunk favicon per instance?

Explorer

I have many tabs open in my browser. Sometimes the only thing that shows on each tab is the favicon. I often have three distinct splunk sources open (spunk.com - doc & anwsers) my splunk in production and my splunk in QA/non-prod. It would be cool to tell the diffrence by changing the icon for Prod and QA. Then I could keep all three distinct.

The favicon.ico is located at $SPLUNK_HOME/share/splunk/search_mrsparkle/exposed/img/favicon.ico. You could change that on your distinct instances to be able to better differentiate between them.

...although be aware that file will get replaced each time you upgrade Splunk. You'll have to re-apply.
