I have a summary index that collects stdout from a script that we run on all our hosts (SplunkLightForwarder). The search runs every 5 minutes looks like this:
and
When I go to retrieve the data, it works fine:
EXCEPT it only contains information for three out of my twenty-four hosts. I check the orig_host field and, sure enough, only 3 values listed. Why would the summary index choose only three hosts to index? There's nothing particular unique about those hosts, it just seems to random. Is this a known issue by any chance? |

Is there a possibility that one or more of your fields going into Assuming this is what's going on, you can use the http://www.splunk.com/base/Documentation/4.1.5/SearchReference/Fillnull I don't think that's the case. Certainly not over the past 24 hours, which is when I started indexing. Thanks though.

How many results are you getting per run? More than 10k?
Not even close. I have a script that runs a command every 30 minutes. Splunk captures the stdout from that command and indexes it. Even tho my saved search runs every 5 minutes, it'll probably capture an event once per 30 minutes per host. And it's just several lines of output. I only have about 8 servers that run this script so it's no where close to 10k.
