Hi, I have a scheduled search which runs every 15 mins. It is not for summary index, so by default it should be a real time scheduling.
is there any parameter I can set, so that if the current scheduled search is not finished,the scheduler won't start a new one?
Thanks
Hi MuS,
Thanks a lot for your reply. But what I understand is for any search which is not for summary index, Splunk will automatically set realtime_schedule to be 1. so that's why i am a little bit confused to see there two instances of this search pending
hi flyingmouse
according to the excellent docs @ splunk this could be done in savedsearchs.conf with with option realtime_schedule
realtime_schedule = [0|1]
* Controls the way the scheduler computes the next execution time of a scheduled search.
* If this value is set to 1, the scheduler bases its determination of the next scheduled search
execution time on the current time.
* If this value is set to 0, the scheduler bases its determination of the next scheduled search
on the last search execution time. This is called continuous scheduling.
* If set to 1, the scheduler might skip some execution periods to make sure that the scheduler
is executing the searches running over the most recent time range.
* If set to 0, the scheduler never skips scheduled execution periods. However, the execution
of the saved search might fall behind depending on the scheduler's load. Use continuous
scheduling whenever you enable the summary index option.
* The scheduler tries to execute searches that have realtime_schedule set to 1 before it
executes searches that have continuous scheduling (realtime_schedule = 0).
* Defaults to 1
hope this helps, cheers
