Splunk Search

Where did splunk-search process go in 4.1?

In Splunk 4.0 searches were moved into a separate splunk-search processes. (So you would see a list of splunk-search OS processes running for each search running in splunk). Now in Splunk 4.1.2, I noticed that these seem to have gone away, and the splunk-search executable is not longer present.

What's the deal?

this was changed to splunkd search in 4.1. i will add a note to the upgrade docs to make sure people find that out.

there's some info about managing search jobs here:
