Hi,

question about restoration of indexed data. I know how to restore(or search old) indexes data by putting necessary files in a thaweddb.

I would like to know how to use command "splunk resurrect", to restore the index specified period of time by the "splunk resurrect" command.

http://www.splunk.com/base/Documentation/4.1.2/Admin/CLIadmincommands

I am referring to the page above, but I can't get successful result. I would appreciate if you could explain how to use "splunk resurrect" with some example case.

Thank you!

From the CLI type... splunk help resurrect. Are you running the command like so....

splunk resurrect /tmp/myarchive/location myindex 01/01/2000:00:00:00 01/01/2001:00:00:00

/tmp/myarchive/location = path to archive file myindex = name of index to resurrect to.
