When the indexes were created, they were created by default. Now that I needed to know how long a log went from hot to warm bucket and finally to frozen, I have the following question. 1. Is this query correct to know how long it is configured to go to frozen? | rest / services / data / indexes | fields title froz * | rename title as index 2. If I need it not to store the logs for 6 years, which is the value that I see by default, and I need it to store the logs for 6 months, understanding that when the log reaches 6 months it would go to a frozen state and splunk would begin to eliminate the older data. 3. I should create a file called indexes.conf in the "local" folder and set the value frozenTimePeriodInSecs = 15778800 b Should I go to the bin and restart the splunk service for it to take the changes? 4. Would this change immediately erase logs that are already 6 months old in seconds? or does it start from this moment?
