We use the *Nix application to pick up all the stats from our servers (cpu, ps etc) and I see in the inputs.conf that these should run at intervals such as 30 seconds for cpu. However, when I do a websearch this doesnt seem to be the case - results seem to return at random intervals. The forwarder is 97% idle so it can't be that it is too busy to return results. Is this a known issue or do you expect to see cpu events every 30 seconds? Thanks! |

It's not completely clear to me what you mean by "websearch". Is it definitely the case that the raw data is not being generated, or is it that when you run reports over that data, you are not seeing it in the intervals you are expecting? For example, To add a little more detail - I am just running searches such as index=os sourcetype=cpu host=... and I do not see the data at the intervals I would expect. Is there a way i can check whether the issue is the forwarder or indexer side? Can i see how often the forwarder kicks off the script?

Yes, you should be able to turn up logging on the Forwarder to see whenever it runs the scripts. You would turn up the log level for "ScriptRunner". http://www.splunk.com/base/Documentation/4.1/Admin/ContactSupport#Log_levels_and_starting_in_debug_mode
