I have a folder with several files on desktop. (xml) files have same names but different numbering for ex: File1, File2. File3
I also set up a sourcetype with event breaking that I tested and it is working (if I'm uploading a file having several events)
However when I set Monitor the folder c:\path\File* Choose a sourcetype that I have created, after reviewing I'm directed to search page where there is no single event (I think those files inside my folder are not indexed)
can anyone suggest what can be a reason?
my inputs stanza
[monitor://C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop\Veritas]
sourcetype = test
index=main
disabled=false
index=_internal sourcetype=splunkd watchedfile
index=main sourcetype=test earliest=0 latest=+1w
index=_internal source=*metrics.log* sourcetype=splunkd test
Check if the timerange you selected is correct?
