Splunk Enterprise

Search head high load

Path Finder

Hi,

Using Splunk Enterprise 7.3.5

Have the following components on separate servers:

License Server

Deployment Server

Heavy Forwarder

Search Head

 

Seems like the load on search head is high and growing, but a lot of seems to come from these scripts

/apps/splunk/splunk/bin/runScript.py
/apps/splunk/splunk/etc/apps/website_monitoring/bin/web_ping.py

 

Any ideas to reduce this?

 

Thanks
