Splunk Search

Where can I find information about searches that reach their max_mem_usage_mb limit?

Hello,

After debugging a search I discovered that the max_mem_usage_mb limit on my system had been reached. A change to limits.conf remediated the issue, but it would be nice to know when any of the searches (scheduled or dashboard based) causes that limit to be reached.

Is there something within _audit or _internal or somewhere else that I can use to send alerts out if and when max_mem_usage_mb is reached?

Thank you!

Andrew
