Hello Splunkers! 

     How would one view the parameters of the indexes.conf by using a SPL statement?  The below SPL statement doesn't seem to work.  Any help is greatly appreciated! 

| rest splunk_server=<hostname>/services/configs/conf-indexes
| transpose

I copied your SPL and it didn't have a space between the endpoint and splunk_server values. Can you try this?

| rest splunk_server=<my_hosts> /services/configs/conf-indexes

The query works for me. Are you putting a space between the hostname and /services/configs/conf-indexes? 

 

Maybe another option is to use the commandline and use btool? 

$SPLUNK_HOME/bin/splunk btool indexes list

Let me try the query again, maybe I fat-fingered it.

I would totally agree with you on any other occasion; however,  If I had access to the backend, I def would be running your CLI suggestion, but I do not, so I need to do this through the front end.
