Analyzing logs

eparmeza · ‎08-21-2020

Hi Guys,

I was hoping you can help me.

I am using Splunk to analyze some logs that I got from a company, but I don't know how to interpret them. The files I am trying to analyze are XML, JMX, .log format. The logs contain real time information about servers of the company. For example, I would like to know how can I find errors in these logs. Another thing I can't explain is that why some logs have one event, while some others have more.

Thank you in advance!

Hi

I propose that you start your learnings from here:

https://community.splunk.com/t5/Archive/Are-there-any-Splunk-training-materials-for-new-users/td-p/2...

Then there are Splunk's own trainings which are good for many of us.
