For our "ATA42_NETWORK" application we have indexed *.NCD files
These files are located in an “input directory” monitored by Splunk for automatic indexing
/mnt/slv01/import/ATA42_NETWORK/NCD
When we perform a search request on our search head, we did not find all events for all *.NCD files
For instance on the indexer server in “input directory” /mnt/slv01/import/ATA42_NETWORK/NCD we have NCD file for A350_MSN_0005 flight 55 and 56
[to102071@de0-lxsolp03 NCD]$ pwd
/mnt/slv01/import/ATA42_NETWORK/NCD
[to102071@de0-lxsolp03 NCD]$ ls -al A350_0005_F005*

When we perform the following search on the search head, we found the events for flight 55 but there is no events for flight 56
index=aib_ata42_ncd source=/mnt/slv01/import/ATA42_NETWORK/NCD/A350_0005_F0055*
index=aib_ata42_ncd source=/mnt/slv01/import/ATA42_NETWORK/NCD/A350_0005_F0056*
Both NCD files have been indexed the same day (Apr 5 2016) and have the same unix rights in the “input directory” : (-r-xr-Sr-x)
I have retrieved the two NCD files on my labtop, I have unzipped them and both NCD are strictly identical !!! (same md5sum)

My question:
It seems that we have an indexing issue.
Do you have an idea of the possible root cause of the problem?
