Hello
I am getting this warning and the sample data looks like this


02-22-2012 17:01:12.280 +0000 WARN DateParserVerbose - A possible timestamp match
(Wed Feb 22 17:01:12 2012) is outside of the acceptable time window. If this timestamp is correct, consider adjusting MAX_DAYS_AGO and MAX_DAYS_HENCE. Context="source::/var/opt/jira/log/atlassian-jira-security.log|host::syn|atlassian_jira|remoteport::47375"

Either you indeed have very strange data (from more than 10 years ago?) or you have badly onboarded sources and date is wrongly parsed.

Yes. Verify your sources and their config in Splunk. Without more information we can't tell you anything more than that.
