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? ... View more

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. ...

the curl command works from the command line only if I specify "-k" (ignore SSL cert) how do I get Splunk to accept the cert? ... View more

Me too. Maybe it's trying to find an index that's not defined on the Heavy Forwarder? "idx=_w(s,0).end())" ... View more

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. ... View more

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 ... View more

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. ...

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? ... View more

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. ... View more

I should say I restarted Splunk after I put the app back. ... View more

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. ... View more

This is on Splunk Universal Forwarder 7.0.1. ... View more

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. ... View more
