Splunk Troubleshooting and Support

Troubleshooting

Events not flowing: If you have configured ObserveIT TA and do not see events flowing into the system, check the internal logs for any error messages.

In the Splunk console, search ta_observeit_observeit_api.log for non-INFO messages:

index=_internal sourcetype="ta:observeit:log" NOT "INFO"

Error: “No previous instances” in TA log

If in the TA log in SPLUNK_HOME\var\log\splunk\ta_observeit_observeit_api.log

A message displays, for example:

2024-01-02 07:01:01,625 INFO pid=612 tid=MainThread file=base_modinput.py:log_info:295 | No previous instances of input 'oit' were found.

This message indicates that you must create the oit index as described in Creating New Index for ObserveIT (example “oit” index).
