Hi,

For field extractions in a clustered environment do you have to use the props.conf method or can you use the field extractor GUI on the search head?

 

Thanks,

 

Joe

You can use either method.  The GUI will write changes to props.conf in the app's local directory, which the cluster will replicate to other members automatically.
