I tried this and still not able to get the data extracted ..Here are mt props.conf and transforms.conf entries

Props.conf

[source::...tcpig.\d+.\sla.\$]

sourcetype = ig_sla

[ig_sla]

TIME_FORMAT = %Y%m%d %H%M%S

TZ = US/Eastern

MAX_EVENTS=1

SHOULD_LINEMERGE = false

LINE_BREAKER = >\s*(?=<rttlog>)

REPORT-xmlext = xml-extr

transforms.conf

[xml-extr]

REGEX = <(\w+)>([^<]+)</

FORMAT = reg_id::"$1" NS::"$2" sub_product::"$3" command::"$4" response_code::"$5"
response_time::"$6"

Can you make sure that the sourcetype is actually applied to those events? There is a bug on splunkbase, that doubles the backslashes . There should only be one in the REGEX stanza...

This should work:

transforms.conf

[simple-xml-tags]
REGEX = <(\w+)>([^<]+)</
FORMAT = $1::$2

props.conf

[my_sourcetype]
REPORT-xml-tags = simple-xml-tags
