Go to Settings->Monitoring Console->Health Check and click the Start button.

For a more specific answer, please ask a more specific question, including the key health check items you want.

Thanks very much for your message & help as always. I am aware of the monitoring console. My company has told us not to install it for some reasons !! I am looking for example how to check the health of all my Forwarders or Indexers , Storage or even S3 etc. If you have any SPL queries for these, I owe you a great lunch some day. If you wonder to Texas. The lunch is on me. Thx

If you want to be pedantic about it, tell your company the monitoring console is installed out of the box so you don't need to *install* it just *use* it.  It's the tool Splunk expects customers to use to monitor their environment.  Anything else is just re-inventing the wheel.

If that's not successful then know the SPL is still available.  See $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/splunk_monitoring_console/default/savesearches.conf and $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/splunk_monitoring_console/default/data/ui/views/*.
