Hi, I have Splunk set up on my workstation, but do not want to monitor the workstation itself. I have gone to Manager » Data inputs » Event log collections » localhost, and cleared all selected logs (application, security, and system), and hit save. When I go back there, however, these three logs are back in the Selected Log(s) box. I have disabled all other data inputs, but still, I get events for my workstation. Am I doing something wrong? Do I need to send these events to a nullqueue, as described in the link below?
