this works great, but over lots of indexes over hours (some are infrequent log sources) it takes a long time, so I shortened the time to 15-minutes and it ran in a few minutes, thank you!

I need to provide feedback on ways logging formats could be improved. To that end, I'm trying to create a search that ends with: | stats values(source) values(_raw) by index sourcetype so I get some examples of logs, but I only want to see a max of 5 values in the source and _raw columns. I tried using foreach with append, but append isn't streaming, so I manually created 204 lines like this: index=index1 sourcetype=sourcetype1 | head 5
| append [ search index=index1 sourcetype=sourcetype2 | head 5 ]
| append [ search index=index2 sourcetype=sourcetype1 | head 5 ]
... It took a long time in "Parsing job...", but eventually produced the results I wanted. What are some different ways of getting this result?

I'm having the same requirement. Maybe one way would be to run it from an external program using API calls to kick off the searches and wait for them to complete?

I tried creating a default app.conf file with the stanza:
[install]
state = disabled
but it didn't disable the app.
Then I removed the app from etc/apps altogether, but it came back.
We run splunk as user "splunk" so then I removed the app and created a directory etc/apps/learned owned by root with permissions 500 (r-x------) so splunk couldn't recreate it. That worked.

Apologies, this will create a file named server.pem.pem that you will have to move to server.pem . You can omit the ".pem" from the end of the second command to save having to do this step.

Or (on Splunk 7.3.2) you could run these commands to create a cert with a new expiration date:
$ mv /opt/splunk/etc/auth/server.pem /opt/splunk/etc/auth/server.pem,expired
$ splunk createssl server-cert -d /opt/splunk/etc/auth -n server.pem

I was getting this error due to an omission in my certificate. The certificate's "Subject" has no "O=", "OU=", or "DC=" specified. The default certificate created by Splunk uses "O=SplunkUser". Since mine was created with HashiCorp Vault, I don't see a way to get it to add one of those in addition to the "CN=" in the Subject, so I guess I won't be able to use Vault-generated certificates for my kvstore.

I followed the steps, but my status is still "starting" on the captain, replicationStatus is "Startup" on one member and "Down" on the other, even though it was "ready" when I brought up the captain solo. How long should it take to replicate?

I'm having the same issue in 7.3.2. System is logging in US/Eastern, Splunk is UTC. My props is based on source. Applied it on HF, and Indexer, no change to time setting.

I created a Splunk Health Dashboard for myself on the server that runs my Monitoring Console. The MC server is not part of my search head cluster. My search head cluster updates a lookup every hour that gets service account status that I'd like to add to my custom dashboard on my Monitoring Console. Is there a way to get the contents of the lookup in the search head cluster into a search on my Monitoring Console?

My interface is showing "up", but I'm getting errors for "speed" and "duplex", even if I cat them from the command line; I'm running on a fairly recent Splunk AMI in AWS, One wonders why Splunk hasn't seen/fixed this?

Yes, you can use "uuidgen" (with no arguments) from the linux command line to generate a token like the one the Splunk GUI does when it creates a new HEC input.

Splunk Enterprise, v7.0.3
I ran the search in https://answers.splunk.com/answers/750097/search-performance-impact-how-to-find-user-deployi.html
I see the exact same alert running 9 times in a 5-minute period that eats 130 to 165 data.pct_cpu each time.
It's an Alert private to a user scheduled to run at 8:00. It ran 9 different times from 9:23 to 9:28 am, according to the search.
Is it a bug in the search due to the way "stats latest(data.pct_cpu) is used that makes the "_time" off?

As of 7.3.2, Splunk uses systemd on RHEL 7 and sets the splunk startup in /etc/rc.d/rc3.d to S90splunk, avoiding this issue.

Ok, I stopped Splunk, removed the Splunk_TA_nix app, started splunk put the app back and started splunk, and I'm finally no longer getting lsof events. However, I now need to do the same on all my deployment clients... Good thing I was planning on working late.

Yes, I did. I have since stopped Splunk, removed deploymentclient.conf, and the DS2-Splunk_TA_nix-cre directory, and set the indexes for all the Splunk_TA_nix inputs in Splunk_TA_nix/local/inputs.conf, and restarted splunk. I'm still getting a steady stream of lsof events every minute.

I can't figure out why lsof.sh is running every minute. Here's the "btool inputs list --debug" output for lsof:
/opt/splunkforwarder/etc/apps/DS2-ns2-Splunk_TA_nix-cre/local/inputs.conf [script:///opt/splunkforwarder/etc/apps/Splunk_TA_nix/bin/lsof.sh]
/opt/splunkforwarder/etc/system/default/inputs.conf _rcvbuf = 1572864
/opt/splunkforwarder/etc/apps/Splunk_TA_nix/local/inputs.conf disabled = 1
/opt/splunkforwarder/etc/system/local/inputs.conf host = c20sbap01l01
/opt/splunkforwarder/etc/apps/DS2-ns2-Splunk_TA_nix-cre/local/inputs.conf index = cre_linux
/opt/splunkforwarder/etc/apps/Splunk_TA_nix/local/inputs.conf interval = 600
/opt/splunkforwarder/etc/apps/Splunk_TA_nix/default/inputs.conf source = lsof
/opt/splunkforwarder/etc/apps/Splunk_TA_nix/default/inputs.conf sourcetype = lsof
Here's my splund.log output:
10-10-2019 16:07:12.898 +0000 INFO ExecProcessor - New scheduled exec process: /opt/splunkforwarder/etc/apps/Splunk_TA_nix/bin/lsof.sh
10-10-2019 16:07:12.898 +0000 INFO ExecProcessor - interval: 60000 ms
I've tried restarting splunk to no effect... Notice that the interval is set to 600 (600 seconds) in the btool output, but 60000 (60 seconds) in the splunkd.log output. I'll try interval = -1 next, and then a single app after that.
