Windows Performance Monitor Logs

Hello,

I have a windows machine with UF installed on that machine. How can I configure my Universal forwarder to ingest windows performance monitoring logs into SPLUNK. Our Windows Source server is located in different location SPLUNK should be getting performance data from. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Hi @SplunkDash ,

I don't know why, but the form adds a part to the address.

remove all the chars after 742 in the url address.

or go in apps.splunk.com and search Splunk Add-On for Windows.

Ciao.

Have you tried installing the Splunk Add-on for Microsoft Windows (https://splunkbase.splunk.com/app/742) on that UF?

Hi @SplunkDash ,

please use this: https://splunkbase.splunk.com/app/742

remember to copy the inputs.conf file in a local folder (to create) and to enable (disabled = 0) the inputs you need because, by default, all the inputs are disabled.

Ciao.

Thank you so much for your quick response. The link you sent to me is not working and getting blank screen. When you get a chance, please send the name of the Add On, so I can search for it in Splunk base. Thank you again!
