Hello,

Is it possible to create indexed fields on log files uploaded from my PC? The log file is tens of thousands of records. I need to index two of the fields in order to run tstats against them. Running a normal search and extracting these two fields (and others) at search time is not efficient. If these two fields were indexed I could run searches with tstats much, much faster.

Thanks in advance and God bless,
Genesius
