Hi Guys,

 

We can see there are 6 hosts which are sending bulk events (logs) to splunk. But we don’t know who is using these host events in spunk. Is there any way we can identify the searches, reports, alerts or dashboards where these hosts events are being used. The purpose is if no where these logs are being used then we can stop the forwarders from those hosts.

Hi @roopeshetty 

can you explain better your use-case?

you received logs from 6 hosts, right?

can  you indentify the hosts with the hosts field?

for each host is configured a uf?

Thanks

Alessandro
