Hello Splunker, i need your help. I have a problem with monitoring a single XML file that records events from an application. Specifically, each new event is saved by appending it to the file, which is structured as follows: <Events> n1 n2 n3 </Events> Each new event transforms the file as follows: <Events> n1 n2 n3 n4 </Events> I don’t understand why, with each new event, despite using CRC Salt and iniCrcLength, I end up with duplicated events, effectively rereading the entire file contents. ...

Hello everyone, i have a set of correlation search (about 250) to deploy in different Splunk ES. Instead of writing them one by one in every Splunk, i would create an application with all those correlation search and later deploy it to the Splunk. It is sufficient to popolate savedsearch.conf file with one stanza per correlation search? Thanks in advance, Luca     ... View more

Hi all, i'm here to ask you some information about a current setting i found on an existing Splunk Index. In particular, this is the indexes.conf stanza related to the index A: [A] homePath = volume:primary/A/db coldPath = volume:secondary/A/colddb thawedPath = $SPLUNK_DB/A/thaweddb homePath.maxDataSizeMB = 15360 coldPath.maxDataSizeMB = 30720 maxWarmDBCount = 4294967295 frozenTimePeriodInSecs = 7776000 maxDataSize = auto coldToFrozenDir = /splunk/A/frozendb archiver.enableDataArchive = 0 bucketRebuildMemoryHint = 0 compressRawdata = 1 enableDataIntegrityControl = 0 enableOnlineBucketRepair = 1 enableTsidxReduction = 0 maxTotalDataSizeMB = 102400 minHotIdleSecsBeforeForceRoll = 0 rtRouterQueueSize = rtRouterThreads = selfStorageThreads = suspendHotRollByDeleteQuery = 0 syncMeta = 1 tsidxWritingLevel = enableDataIntegrityControl=true After checking bucket information via monitoring console, i have the following question: 1) Why there is a hot bucket related to the index A with with startEpoch 16 december and endEpoch 31 Dec, with size on disk 375MB ? It's related to the fact it does not hit neither size nor time (default maxhotspansec=90days) parameter to roll to warm? 2) if my requirement is to set 6 months of retention of this index, how can i be sure parameter frozenTimePeriodinSec act as expected? 3) I was thinking to set maxHotSpanSecs to 1 day for hot to warm, but what about rolling from warm to cold in a way i does not create any kind of problem with conf modification on existing data? Thanks in advance everyone. ... View more

Hi everyone Splunker. I'm actually dealing with a quite serious problem which let me send to our customer empty csv results. A saved search for report has been scheduled to run once a day at 5 AM. The email has an empty csv file. However, when i look for the report name within Splunk GUI and click on execute, it prompt me the correct results. I thought was an authorizative problem related to the owner of the Report, but the owner is me, and i can see the right result both within the App in which the report exist, both everywhere. The curious thing is that sometimes the csv attached to the email show the currect result, other time not (I've set the chron to run every ten minutes). Please, may you help me? Thanks in advance ...
