Getting Data In

Why am I getting an error when backing up my heavy forwarder?

I want to back up my HF so that I can upgrade to the new 7.2 version but I get these invalid errors:

Checking conf files for problems...

            Invalid key in stanza [aws:cloudwatch:metric] in /opt/splunk/etc/apps/Splunk_TA_aws/default/props.conf, line 242: METRIC-SCHEMA-TRANSFORMS  (value:  metric-schema:aws_cloudwatch_metric_schema).

            Invalid key in stanza [eval_aws_metric_name_prefix] in /opt/splunk/etc/apps/Splunk_TA_aws/default/transforms.conf, line 75: INGEST_EVAL  (value:  metric_name = Namespace.".".MetricName).

            Invalid key in stanza [metric-schema:aws_cloudwatch_metric_schema] in /opt/splunk/etc/apps/Splunk_TA_aws/default/transforms.conf, line 78: METRIC-SCHEMA-MEASURES  (value:  SampleCount,Average,Sum,Minimum,Maximum).

What's the problem and how can I fix this? Thanks

Those are warnings, not errors, and can be ignored safely.

If you really want to fix them, you can try updating or re-installing the apps that generate them: Splunk_TA_aws and Splunk_TA_f5-bigip.
