You can barely run a single instance on 4 cores reliably. Definitely not two. At 10GB/day, unless you need HA, you really shouldn't need more than one instance/server but you absolutely must get more cores. If cost is a concern, see about reducing some of that memory usage. No way you need 200GB for this small of a deployment and RAM is expensive.

Quick and dirty example of the average of both over time. sourcetype=Perfmon* (object="Memory" counter="Committed Bytes") OR (object="LogicalDisk" counter="% Free Space") | timechart avg(Value) as Value by counter

You can try using sendCookedData=false as in https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/7.2.3/Forwarding/Forwarddatatothird-partysystemsd#Forward_a_subset_of_data

Download the app yourself and unpack to etc/apps if you have this much permission. Otherwise, it seems you have splunk admin permissions, download locally and upload via manage apps.

You should ask simon@balz.me who created this.

You should upgrade. There are known bugs for tailing files in versions this old.

You have a lot of traffic for your deployment. Increase disk space.

The owner of the search needs to have list_storage_passwords capability.

davpx · ‎01-24-2019

Because there is but only a single capability to grant access to all secrets stored on the system and it traverses system wide. Splunk really needs to work on their permissions structure.

This was fixed in 7.0.8 and recent releases of 7.2. To workaround this in earlier versions, either add the indexes to your search head or go grab an authorize_roles.xml from a 6.x version and deploy it to your SHC manually in etc/apps/search/local/data/ui/manager https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/7.0.8/ReleaseNotes/Fixedissues#Splunk_Web_and_interface_issues

Why are you using such odd ports? Nuance practices like these will get you in a lot of trouble.

TIME_PREFIX = timestamp:\s+ TIME_FORMAT = %s in props.conf

davpx · ‎04-04-2018

Try running these again with a set time window instead of a real-time search and compare again.

Some inputs can return the shortname and some return the FQDN. Check to ensure your forwarder's inputs.conf hostname under [default] matches the name in server.conf and that any other inputs do not specify a host explicitly.

Try something like index=wineventlog EventCode=521 OR EventCode=4617 | timechart span=1h count by host or index=wineventlog EventCode=521 OR EventCode=4617 | timechart span=1h sum(eval(EventCode=521)) as 521 sum(eval(EventCode=4617)) as 4617 by host

Does something like this help? index=blah sourcetype=sourcetypeA OR sourcetype=sourcetypeB | stats count(my_field) as count by sourcetype

davpx · ‎04-04-2018

I downvoted this post because refusing to accept a correct answer leaves unanswered spam on the board.

davpx · ‎03-09-2018

Right and _time is actually in epoch format under the covers but it sounds like you got it resolved.

Your target server is missing from your command or have you redacted it?
