Do you have access to an admin account, or maybe a break-glass account that you can execute the CLI reload with?

@SN1  Even though telnet is connecting, there might still be network issues or firewall rules affecting the Splunk traffic. Ensure that there are no firewalls blocking the traffic between the forwarders and indexers. Make sure all your indexers are running and reachable. You can use the Splunk monitoring console to view the status of your indexers. Check the resource usage on your forwarders and indexers. High CPU or memory usage can sometimes cause forwarding issues. Then are you using an SSL certificate? If yes, check the validity and the password of your certificate and that the certificate is used on UFs and IDXs.

Hi guys,   I am looking to build a query/dashboard that would monitor the status of the connection of the splunk API to the MISP42 instance.   I am unsure how to go about this, I can't find anything interesting in _internal index to fetch or look at or a heartbeat that would indicate a successful handshake.   To my understanding, a search is ran every X days (we set it up once a day) to write the data we have in our MISP instance to lookups. Those different lookups are then used for Threat Intelligence and is mapped.   Maybe I should monitor the search to see if it did not write any updates? I am trying to get notified or a query that would let me know there is an issue with the feed.   Thanks,

Hi everyone,  we are currently in a migration project and want to process NetFlow data within Splunk. For this purpose, we are using Splunk Stream and the associated apps (Add-On for Stream Forwarders/Add-On for Stream Wire Data) and we are receiving a lot of data from the respective system. Unfortunately, many fields in this data remain empty, even though they can be read from the same system using the current NetFlow tool. We selected every possible field from the configuration within the GUI changed the NetFlow version from 5 to 9 and IPFIX without any positive outcome. The fields which are interessting for us are the following: interface name app app_desc protocol (tcp or udp)   Are there any additional configuration options available or did anyone experienced this issue ?   Thanks in advance

Is there any particular reason for using Python splunk-sdk over standard restful API libraries or tools (such as Python requests library)? Using standard Python, you should be able to import data into pandas with 3 lines:   response = requests.get(url) data = response.json() pd.DataFrame(data)   What does splunk-sdk have that Python requests does not?   Thanks!

Telnet will tell you if a network connection can be made, but won't say if the Splunk-to-Splunk protocol is working or not. Have you confirmed all forwarders are running?  Do they have the right outputs.conf settings?  Are their certificates valid? Have you looked at each forwarder's splunkd.log file to see what connection errors are being reported? Do you replace forwarders often?  If so, Splunk probably still expects to hear from the old ones and this message may be a false positive.

Hi, I would like to see a log of when and by whom the ACS API was called. I thought I could check the “_internal” index in Splunk Cloud, but I couldn't. Is there any way to get the ACS API logs?
@myitlab42000Could you check with your IT team to see if the email is there? Sometimes, you may need to request them to release it if it gets blocked.
