Use case document

Hi all,

Looking for some advise on the best way to document a deployment.

Inherited a deployment and cannot get my head around how use cases and alerting has been set up.

For example what use cases use what logs

What would you advise

Thanks

Dave

Have you seen https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/8.0.6/InheritedDeployment/Introduction ?  Once you understand your environment and data you can begin to understand your use cases and alerts.

Most of what you seem to be looking for should be at Settings->Searches, reports, and alerts.  This page will show what scheduled searches, reports, and alerts are running on your system.  Examination of the search used by each should tell you what data sources they use.
