How to remove the inputs that are given at time of universal forwarder installation
Hi
I've installed the splunk indexer on linux machine and universal forwader on a windows machine.While installing universal forwader - at the Installation wizard I gave some basic inputs to enable like CPU load,disk space and system log in windows but I dont want to monitor this any more so I need to remove this info.I have cleared the inputs.conf under $SPLUNKHOME/etc/apps/MSICreated/inputs.conf and $SPLUNKHOME/etc/system/local/inputs.conf but still the inputs ' CPU load,disk space and system log' is shown in splunk web console
How do I remove the above inputs from indexing please?
Thanks

where this path will be please?
I can't find it in universal forwarder(windows) or in indexer
the only local folder is /etc/system/local and /etc/apps/MSICreated/local

run:
splunk cmd btool inputs list --debug
This will give you all of the configured inputs, and their properties. the first column will indicate which app has configured that input.
Is the data you're seeing possibly from before the inputs were removed? Did you restart after modifying the inputs?

there is nothing configured in the etc/system/local/inputs.conf but I can see few entries in etc/system/default/inputs.conf - is it taking input from there?
I can confirm it is the new data being indexed,not the old one because even after deleting the old data from index I can see the updated data again..

This should be simple to fix, if you're interested and could join #splunk on EFNet we could knock this out pretty easy. http://cbe002.chat.mibbit.com/ is one webclient

Would need to see you're etc/system/local/inputs.conf if it's not configured in there, then there's no reason why it should be still getting data if you've restarted. Can you confirm that new data is still being indexed, not just seeing old data?

I executed the above command and in the outputs listed I can't see the 'CPU load,disk space and system log'.the first column displays only one app - system.
yes I restarted twice after removing the inputs.conf
any other suggestions please?
