Is there a way to find out how much data is being sent to the indexer(s) or the size of raw data that has already been indexed?
One can login to the indexer and follow Manager->Indexes and get the index size “Current size (MB)”. However,a consolidated way of getting this info from the search-head would be helpful; instead of visiting each indexer. Is there such mechanism in palce?
Yes. Using Rest via the search language to hit the indexer endpoint. the following search will do the trick
| rest /services/data/indexes | chart sum(currentDBSizeMB) by splunk_server
Selected timeframe will not have an effect.
