Context:
When attempting to index a massive log (>30GB) I am not seeing Splunk log percent complete, status, or errors in the _internal index. I see the tailingprocessor adding watch on my path, but I never see an end log when/if the file indexing in complete.
Ask:
Is the _internal index the location I should be looking for errors/success/status logs?
The best place to look might be in the TailingProcessor's own status endpoint. There you can see which status each monitor input currently has. Read more about it here: http://blogs.splunk.com/2011/01/02/did-i-miss-christmas-2/
