Hi @kristian_kolb, If I create this in a specific app called e.g twistlock_parsing to remove events coming from host 127.0.0.1 only within a specific index e.g azure_twistlock - will this drop all events across all indexes containing that ip? I only want that IP address dropped in index azure_twistlock. I have already tried the solution from this page: https://community.splunk.com/t5/Getting-Data-In/How-to-blacklist-a-host-hosts-is-sending-logs-to-Splunk-via-TCP/m-p/289283 and it didn't work ...

Hello, I have same kind of issue in the environment.. could you please elaborate in detail on how to identify which logs are useful and which can be omitted from using the splunk license.

I know this is a really old post, but this is exactly what I think I need to do.  I am too much of a noob to follow this.  Are you still out there? Specifically, I want to search for Windows Security 4776 sucess events, deduplicate the list based on the value in the "Logon Account:  UserX" string within the events message field.  SO I think I need to extract the "Logon Event: UserX" sting so the filed is Logon Account: and the Dedup is applied to the value of that field     ...

https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/8.2.2/Knowledge/Usesummaryindexing Does summary indexing count against your license? Summary indexing data volume is not counted against your license, even if you have multiple summary indexes. All summarized data has a special default source type. Events summarized in a summary events index have a source type of stash. Metric data points summarized in a summary metrics index have a source type of mcollect_stash. If you use commands like collect or mcollect to change these source types to anything other than stash (for events) or mcollect_stash (for metric data points), you will incur license usage charges for those events or metric data points. ...
