Splunk Search

When running the delete dups search, I'm reaching the 10k limit. How do I increase it?

I'm trying to delete dups using this method here: https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Search/How-to-delete-duplicate-logs/td-p/300343

But because I have so many dups (>10k), it doesn't delete them in one run. Is there another way to delete everything at once?

Not at once, no. You'll have to run multiple searches that select fewer than 10,000 rows and pipe them to | delete.
