Hi, We need some help with rerouting data from a universal forwarder via a heavy forwarder into a different index than given in the UF inputs.conf. Universal Forwarder inputs.conf: [monitor:///var/opt/log/tomcat/test.log] disabled = false sourcetype = testdatenb2c Heavy Forwarder (as man in the middle) configuration: inputs.conf: [default] host = splunk-heavy-dev-369368 [splunktcp://9697] connection_host = ip props.conf: [testdatenb2c] TRANSFORMS-routing = transforms_TEST transforms.conf [transforms_TEST] DEST_KEY=_TCP_ROUTING FORMAT=B2CDATEN2EC REGEX=. outputs.conf [tcpout:B2CDATEN2EC] #Disable the current filters from the defaults outputs.conf forwardedindex.0.whitelist = forwardedindex.1.blacklist = forwardedindex.2.whitelist = forwardedindex.0.whitelist = test disabled = false server = my-splunk-idx-dev:9997 Now, the data gets indexed by the my-splunk-idx-dev server, but the data doesn't land in the index "test". Instead, it is being indexed in "main" as the default configured on the UF. What are we doing wrong here? How can we reroute the data to our "test" index on the my-splunk-idx-dev server? Thank you in advance for any help, Best regards, Tom
