We have a Splunk dashboard - one of the panels (search) uses splunk dbmon:dump to fetch the details from an Oracle DB. Now, due to some problems, we want to get away from dbmon and instead have our own script (scripted input) to fetch the data from the database. I have written the script and it works well, however...
It does not run on demand. What I mean is, the search on the dashboard uses the data which is generated by this script. Now, if the script runs at, say every 15 mins, then I would have to wait for 15 mins to get the real-time data. In case of dbmon, I used to get data immediately after any updates to the db.
Is there any other way to achieve this?
