yesterdays directory is \\TABASIPP\Prod_Data\appr\data\processed\2022-06-01\ The ten files are SUM_VAL_2002_06_01_9344887.csv 20220601_EOD_Final.csv MER_VALUE_2022_06_01_9344701.csv CAL_VALUE_2022_06_01_9344789.csv 20220602_CM_REP_VAL.csv 20220602_IE_EOD_REPORT.csv EQ_CAL_REP_2022_06_02_9433323.csv 2022_06_02_CAL_VAL_REPORT.csv 2022_06_02_EOD_CAL_REPORT.csv 20220602_PNL_REPORT2.csv Note that the ones with 7 digit number at end of the filename after the date is a random number you can ignore - I think it's a timestamp. But need to ensure these 10 files are received by 4pm, else send an splunk email alert. thanks so much ... View more

Hi @gcusello  Are you able to modify the search to specifically locate each of the 10 files. It's because there are more than 10 files in the directory.. more like 50 by 4pm, it's just that if any of these 10 are missing, it's a showstopper. The other files not so important. So really need something like check for file1 & file2 & file3 & .........& File10, if any file is missing and it's 4pm, send alert.. Thanks and regards ... View more

Hi gcusello, thanks for your reply.  you're right, <todays date> is a directory, and changes every day. So the folder I need to check for todays files is 20220602. Tomorrow, it will be 20220603 - so format is YYYYMMDD. The tricky bit is that the files dont all have the same format. Some files have the date at the start of the file with format YYYYMMDD, while others  have the date in the middle of the filename with format either xxxxxxxx-DD-MMM-YYYYY-xxxxxxxxx.csv while a couple dont have date in them at all there are 10 files in all, so can I just write a rule that lists all 10 of them. thanks and regards ...

Hi all, I need to create an alert to check a folder has 10 files that are created daily. The tricky bit is the folder name is based on the date. the complete path is  \\TABASIPP\Prod_Data\appr\data\<today's date> and in there, we need to check that 10 files are created by 4pm. the 10 files are  20220530Report1.csv 20220530Report2.csv Fails_30May2022_checked.csv 20220530_total_submissions.csv 20220530_loss_report.csv 30May2022_EOD.csv etc... note that the file names all have the current date, as well as the folder has the date in it as well. Need to check that the files are created by 4pm, and if not, send us an email alert. Is this possible with splunk and how would you do this? thanks for any help in advannce.   ... View more
