Hello @sboogar
A historical search is a search that has a distinct time range, such as the past hour, the previous day, or "between 2 and 4 last Tuesday". Historical searches usually review data in the past, but you can set up these searches to review events with future-dated timestamps, if your index contains them.
In Limits.conf there are different parameter which can help you out. This is the formula which is used for this:
max_searches_per_cpu x number_of_cpus + base_max_searches = max_hist_searches
The default settings are base_max_searches = 6, max_searches_per_cpu = 1, max_searches_per = 50, and max_rt_search_multiplier = These settings can be changes using limits.conf but you need to be careful as it all depends on your hardware capability.
