Getting Data In

Where is the data for my monitor file var/log/zimbra.log file?

I set up a monitor zimbra.log file, but I find it is missing the data pushed to the Splunk server compared to the actual file it has.
How do I have to deal with this problem?

If I had to guess, I would say that you probably have the Splunk TA for linux installed, which monitors /var/log... This is a crap monitor stanza and is most likely causing a conflict with your monitor stanza. Add a blacklist to that /var/log monitor stanza for zimbra logs.

If my theory is correct, you can search the os index for source=/var/log/zimbra.log and you will see data, unless you changed the name of the index from os to something else.

Could you please help with Splunkd.log files for the Zimbra mail server where splunk is installed.
