Hi all,
I have indexer clusters at multiple sites, but common Search Heads.
I want to remove certain indexes which holds no data.
How can I find in which indexer cluster's indexes.conf , the certain indexes entries are present.
Also in which deployment app of which indexer the related monitoring stanza is present.
Is there any rest api command to get the details?
Thanks in Advance
Please tell us more about your environment. Usually, even a multi-site indexer cluster has a single Cluster Manager so there's only one place to look for indexes ($SPLUNK_HOME/etc/master-apps on the CM).
If you have more than one CM then you have more than one master-apps directory in which to look.
To find the specific app that defines the index, run this command on each CM
find /opt/splunk/etc/master-apps -name indexes.conf -print0 | xargs -r0 egrep "^\[indexname]"
Hi,
We have a separate multiple CM
Thanks for answer, I will try the same.
Do we have any combinations of rest api to get the details from SH? Or from CM server itself??
There is the services/cluster/master/indexes API, but it doesn't return app information. See the REST API Reference Manual for details.
