All,
My Windows Event Log items are coming in as sourcetype=WinEventLog and not sourcetype=WinEventLog:Security as it set in my inputs.conf
# inputs.conf
[WinEventLog://Security]
source = WinEventLog:Security
sourcetype=WinEventLog:Security
disabled = 0
start_from = oldest
current_only = 0
evt_resolve_ad_obj = 1
checkpointInterval = 5
blacklist1 = EventCode="4662" Message="Object Type:(?!\s*groupPolicyContainer)"
blacklist2 = EventCode="566" Message="Object Type:(?!\s*groupPolicyContainer)"
index = wineventlog
renderXml=false
On my intermediate servers I have a props.conf file
[source::WinEventLog:Security]
sourcetype=WinEventLog:Security
TRANSFORMS-winsourceeventlogsecurity = route_stubhinfo_to_es
[WinEventLog:Security]
TRANSFORMS-wineventlogsecurity = route_stubhinfo_to_es
#props.conf
[route_stubhinfo_to_es]
REGEX=.*
DEST_KEY=_TCP_ROUTING
FORMAT=lvssplunkes
My indexers do not have any props.conf settings.
My search heads do not have search time sourcetype renaming enabled.
Any idea where I might be messing up? How I can troubleshoot this farther?
You probably have Splunk TA Windows v5.0.0 installed, this does sourcetype transforms and as of version 5.0.0, sourcetype no longer includes the type of eventlog, it just says "WinEventLog".

I am not seeing anything that could cause that.

Are you sure you have 4.8.4 everywhere and not version 5?
