Overview
Details
Provides a set of dashboards and saved searched to assist in monitoring Splunk license usage, and identify missing forwarders

splunk-app-licenseMonitor

Overview

This is a simple app that pulls together various views I've found to help monitor the license index usage. It was born out of some frustration with DeploymentMonitor not providing accurate enough information for license usage in 5.0.1.

Additionally, it adds some useful views for finding missing forwarders, that DeploymentMonitor was not able to find. Key functionality includes:

License Monitor

  • License Usage (Today and Yesterday)
  • Graph for daily license usage
  • Graph for hourly license usage
  • Per host/sourcetype license usage breakdowns.

Missing Forwarder

  • Identify missing forwarders
  • Analysis for identifying under-performing forwarders (and sometimes better at finding missing forwarders)

Thanks to:

  • Cory Wallace (): Helping provide some of the searches that the views are based upon.
  • Jason Timlin (): Updating the searches to be more accurate in 6.0+ environments
