Your forwarder points the data to your indexer. Splunk will use what it need depending upon whether your additions are search time or index time behaviors. again putting your changes on both indexer and search head will harm nothing. $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/splunk_app_was/local/ So the answer (without knowing what you want to do) is that any additions to the existing nf and nf would be in If you look at nf, based on the sources, the app creates sourcetypes and has both EXTRACT (search time) and TRANSFORMS (index time) extractions. the nf will create an empty index on the search head (and harm nothing) and nf and nf will be ignored on the indexer. We don't want to keep pushing to production while trying to get something working.Īnd one final side-note, you could also use SEDCMD in props at parse time to mask data.if you wanted.$SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/splunk_app_was/default/ That way, you can create your add-ons there, manually upload sample data and verify that it works the way you want before pushing it your infrastructure. TRANSFORMS-mask_sensitive_data = mask_stringĪlso if possible, it's helpful to have a test/dev environment.even if it's just a standalone splunk instance. If you want to use sourcetype, then don't specify a 's the default behavior for a stanza. Also, if you specify source:: in the stanza name, it expects the source not the sourcetype. Also, I'd suggest adding the description part to your transforms settings just to be sure it's unique. All of the settings on the left side of the equal sign should be in all caps. I'm not sure if that's a copy/paste or something you just typed up when created the post. If you also have a search-time settings in there, you could also put it in deployment-apps and push it to your search head. And then we would put that TA in the master-apps folder and push it out. And we would have metadata folder where we would create a simple ta file. In that app would we would have a local folder where we put our configuration. For example, if I work for the ACME corporation and we onboard Application ABC, then we may create an add-on called: TA-acme_abc. Second, we typically create apps/add-ons for our configuration. But note that it is recommended (as you scale at least) that the cm is just a cm and nothing else. If that same server is also configured as a deployment server, use that to manage other components of infrastructure. Hopefully I have provided enough background to help solve the issue.įirst, if you're using an indexer cluster, plan to just use master-apps on the cluster master (cm) to push config to your indexers. conf files in /splunk/etc/master-apps/_cluster/local on the Cluster Master and /splunk/etc/master-apps/_cluster/local on the Search Head, but I have yet to try it.
I have heard suggestions in other Answers to place these. master-apps/all_indexes/local/nfĪnd the monitor stanzas with source paths are declared in the following conf file:
New indexes are declared with hot/cold paths and retention in the following conf file: We are actively using the following directories on the Cluster Master to push cluster bundles to the indexes: I believe the content may matter for proper placement: My files are below (changed for posting). The index that contains the applicable Source Type uses a Universal Forwarder (not Heavy Forwarder). This cannot be done at search time (best practice) as it is sensitive information. conf files is to regex and replace a string located in events for a specific Source Type. I am having trouble determining where nf and nf are supposed to be placed. I have a Clustered Environment (Cluster Master) with a dedicated Search Head.
