Splunk Search

Events are going to multiple indexes.

I have an issue where events are indexed into multiple indexes partially.

Now the problem is that

Example: -

Some events from SWITCH-A are indexed in main
Some events from SWITCH-A are indexed in cisco

How can I ignore those events being indexed into the main index?

thanks,

Hi @sherrysafdar,
what's your problem: to understand why some events are stored in main or to not see in search results events from main?

If you need the first, you have to share more details about your input and transformation.

If instead it's the second, it's easy, you have only to insert in your searches index=cisco.
And, if the second, that to insert in searches index=... it's always a good practice because your searches are quicker.

Ciao.
Giuseppe
