Hello , Currently i have an summary index script which i have to run manually now everyday at 9 pm , i am thinking to automate it using linux cron job , is their a way to do it , if anyone could help how can i automate the command to run everyday at 9 pm on linux.
Below is my summary index script :
./splunk cmd python fill_summary_index.py -app search -name "xxxxxxxx" -et 1546754401 -lt 1547359201-j 2 -owner xxx -auth admin:changeme
i want it to automate and run everyday 9 pm ?
If you have to do a linux cron job, put the command in place using crontab. Your schedule should look something like this.
why you are using Linux cron? Can it be a savedsearch within Splunk scheduled for a time?
No you cant use it as a saved search , this command needs to run from backend , so i am still working in it once i am done if successfull i will post my configs.
