@Prudhvi_k   the language of certain log messages can be influenced by the operating system locale/environment variables inherited by the Splunk process at startup, such as LANG, LC_ALL, and LC_MESSAGES. PID=$(pgrep -o splunkd) echo "Splunk PID: $PID" tr '\0' '\n' < /proc/$PID/environ | egrep '^(LANG|LC_)' If the problem is locale-related, you may find something like: LANG=ru_RU.utf8 LC_MESSAGES=ru_RU.utf8 and also check your current shell using this command:  locale       ...

Latency can also increase during event acquisition. This is due to the overhead involved in performing AD translations. * When you set this setting to true, you can optionally specify the domain controller name or dns name of the domain to bind to with the 'evt_dc_name' setting. The input connects to that domain controller to resolve the AD objects. * If you set this setting to false, the input does not attempt any resolution. * Default: false (disabled) for all channels Please check this documentation https://splunk.my.site.com/customer/s/article/High-CPU-and-Memory-Usage-After-Splunk-UF-10-Upgrade  ...

@CyberAar  The in function must be used with functions like case and if to evaluate conditions and return results based on those conditions.   case: The case function allows you to evaluate multiple conditions and return a value when a condition is true. It can be used with in to check if a value matches any of the specified values in a set. if: The if function evaluates a condition and returns one value if the condition is true and another if it is false. It can be used with in to create conditional logic based on whether a value is in a set. The validate function is not a standard SPL function. It is not designed to work with the in function or to evaluate conditions in this context. Instead, validate might be confused with a custom function or a term from another context, but it does not apply here in Splunk's SPL.   Using in with if    Using in with case   Using validate   ...
