Can you click item “Bucket” to get the details of error and also look what you can found from internal logs (e.g. index=_internal sourcetype=splunkd bucket)?

What details do you have about the error?
Click on the red Buckets text to get them. Or check splunkd.log.

Hello,

 

I get a response with one of my index

"Root Cause(s):
The percentage of small of buckets created (100) over the last hour is very high and exceeded the red thresholds (50) for index=jenkins_statistics, and possibly more indexes, on this indexer"

Any idea how to fix this issue.

Hi

if you don’t use smartstore then you should update your indexes.conf with maxDataSize = auto_high_volume for that index if this behavior is regular.
