Format of the date you want based on that number? @ITWhisperer 
"Splunk forwarders" are installed on the servers where MDI sensor is installed.  So far, no ingestion has been done.

What are MDI logs? Where are they stored? Do you have Splunk forwarders on there too? There are a lot of unanswered questions about your environment and the potential ways that data can be ingested into Splunk. Have you ingested other data sources? Can you modify these to include the MDI logs?

What is the issue? Stash files are used by Splunk to serialise the events so that they can be indexed. The source can be overridden in the collect command. These are from two different reports - if you are interested, you should look at the settings for those reports to see the differences in how they are sent to the summary index. As for the times, where the times are almost identical, this is likely to be due to a cron job, which potentially is from a unix-based system, whereas the sources with more different times look like they are from a Windows-based system, which doesn't usually have cron.
I have further investigated and seen that the Info_search_time for all the stash file is same. Please suggest any significance behind it ?

Hi, I have business use case of creating an alert wherein it has to search and trigger if the condition is matched, this alert is cron scheduled at 1pm from Monday through Friday.   The query: index=xyz | head 1 | eval month_year=strftime(now(),"%c") | table month_year   I work on IST zone, the splunk server is CST/CDT zone, but from the alert mail we can see that the search was executed on 1pm(13:00), but trigger time is 1:14 am CST, I received the alert mail on 11:44am IST. Actually I should receive the mail on 11pm IST, Please help me out there.     Thanks  
Can you give an example of what 45123 is supposed to be as a date? I can make a guess but it might be wrong which would waste everyone's time.

Hi, We are running many applications with JAVA_AGENT and out of those, a few applications are discovering the JDBC calls and a few are not discovering the JDBC backend. I even tried to manually add a custom discovery with rule of matching URL. What all other factors impacting this and anything needs to be changed? Have attached the samples here. Note: 1. Both apps are using same version of MySQL connector jar.  mysql-connector-java : 5.1.49 For the application where the JDBC details and queries are captured.  For the similar application where JDBC details are not captured. Note:  1. For the app where details are captured is a web-app where business-transaction are present. but for the app where this is not captured is a core java app without transaction. ( More like a monitoring app ). Does this have any impact? Thanks & Regards. Akshay

Hello Splunkers!! Every week, my report runs and gathers the results under the summary index=analyst. You can see that several stash files are being created for the specific report in the screenshot below. Conversely, multiple stash files won't be created for other reports.   Report with multiple stash files. Report with no duplicate no stash files. Please provide me an assistance on this.
How can we ingest MDI logs to Splunk?

You need to "carry over" value from one results row to another using autoregress command or streamstats. Autoregress is pretty straightforward. For example in this case | autoregress get as old_get Streamstats seems a bit more complicated but can be a pretty powerful tool. Alternative to autoregress here would be | streamstats current=f window=1 values(get) as old_get One caveat to both those commands - they are applied in order of the returned events which by default is the reverse chronological order which means you'd be copying values from a newer result to the older one. If that's not what you want, you'll need to resort your results.

Thank You @Richfez  As a first need (and I should have said this in the opening), I was not asking to access them at all. I just want to know where they are, to backup them just like everything else in /etc/apps folder. But editing them could also be a need, ex: in case of db inputs info  loss of any kind.  And if it be the case, I guess to better edit them (at one's own risk) directly into the OS via a text editor since they are json. regards Altin
