Splunk Search

Forward certain items to indexer and then split into multiple indexes.

I've got a heavy forwarder that is filtering out lines from a monitor. and the rest is being send to nullQueu

props.conf

[source1]
NO_BINARY_CHECK = 1
SHOULD_LINEMERGE = false
MAX_TIMESTAMP_LOOKAHEAD=35
pulldown_type = 1
TRANSFORMS-set= setnull,setparsing

transforms.conf

[setnull]
REGEX = .
DEST_KEY = queue
FORMAT = nullQueue

[setparsing]
REGEX = (?i)event=(event1|event2)
DEST_KEY = queue
FORMAT = indexQueue

in my indexer i did this

props.conf

[source1]
TRANSFORMS-index = splitevent1,splitevent2
EXTRACT-ip = ^(?P<ip>[^,]+)

transforms.conf

[splitevent1]
REGEX = (?i)event1
DEST_KEY = _MetaData:Index
FORMAT = event1index

[splitevent2]
REGEX = (?i)event2
DEST_KEY = _MetaData:Index
FORMAT = event2index

events are still going to the main index. and my defined indexes event1index and event2index are empty.. any ideas???

Have you tried adding the same configs that are on the indexer to the heavy forwarder?
