Hello Team, We are using AppD SaaS to monitor our servers infra metrics. We noticed one of the windows servers went down on 13th April 2022 but when we checked now (18th April 2022) we are unable to see the entry in console. Could you please help me whether the entry will be disappeared from console if the server not reported to AppD for any certain period? If yes can you share some details about it? Thanks, Selvaganesh E

Hello Team, Few of our HF was configured to sent logs to syslog ng - local server for logs storage. After upgrade the certification on those forwarders, logs stop coming into Splunk. Its working fine on forwarders that not configured to sending data to syslog ng.  We tried to remove the syslog ng config from the HF setting but still no data coming in. Any idea/thought on this? Maybe anyone had similar issue previously.  Is there any cert upgrade needed on the syslog ng server as well? Thank in advance.  Muhammad Murad

Hi Team,   Could you please clarify my doubt on connectivity between Heavy forwarder and Universal Forwarder. I have 2 site, Heavy forwarder and universal forwarder on both site.  Do I need to connect  the heavy forwarder  on X site to universal forwarder on X site only  or do I need to connect HF on X site to both X and Y site UFs.    There will be connectivity between both sites. Heavy forwarder are not connected to each other. they will be pushing data to indexers which are clustered.

Hi all, I want to set a condition "credential.helper= ", notice there is a trailing space after the "=".  What I want to achieve is to catch anything record that has "credential.helper=" and any value after "=" sign. So if there is only a trailing space, I can ignore it. How could I go about it in  a search, please? Thanks,

Let's suppose I have the following search:   | makeresults | eval name="Denis", age=34 | append [| makeresults | eval name="Nazarena", age=28] | append [| makeresults | eval name="Diego", age=10] | append [| makeresults | eval name="Maria", age=43] | search age > 30 | stats count by name   It outputs: name count Denis 1 Maria 1   I need to get the number of times some name appears when it's age is higher than 30 BUT I need to show the unmatched names (lower than 30) as "count = 0". Something like this: name count Denis 1 Nazarena 0 Diego 0 Maria 1 What should I need to change in this search in order to achieve that?

Hello, I upgraded our office's Search Head (SH) to 8.1.9 from 8.0.4. On the previous version, MC wouldn't even load. Now that it does, the Overview Window just says "Searching for..." (See screenshot below). But I can do a search for my indexer or forwarder and other events in the Search App. Not sure what I am missing with the MC setup. Other tabs like the Health Check work. Any suggestions or help are greatly appreciated! Thank you very much.   V/r, mello920
