I am hoping to use DB Connect to perform an SQL query and log the execution time? (As i can do in an sql client with set timing on).
If this is a possible use case for Splunnk DB Connect, is there some document on how to achieve this?
DB Connect logs the execution time of the commands by default. You can use the following search for example to see the execution times of dbquery:
index=_internal sourcetype=dbx_debug (logger=DatabaseQueryCommand (action=executing OR "statement executed")) OR (logger=ExecutionContext "Execution finished")
| eval query_duration=tostring(duration/1000,"duration")
| transaction thread maxpause=30m startswith=(logger=DatabaseQueryCommand action=executing) endswith=(logger=ExecutionContext)
| table _time query database count query_duration
