Sending Metrics with the Periodic Stats Logger and the Splunk Universal Forwarder

You can use the Splunk Universal Forwarder to monitor the logs/dsstats.json file and forward the metrics to Splunk.

About this task

The Periodic Stats Logger plugin writes PingAuthorize Server metrics to a file in the server root.

Steps

  • Under the Splunk Forwarder application files, update the etc/apps/search/local/inputs.conf file with the following configuration for dsstats.json:

    <path/to/PingAuthorize>/logs/dsstats.json]
  sourcetype=log2metrics_json
  index=<pazmetrics>
  disabled=false
  host=<paz1>

    You can customize the index name and configure the host value to label where the metrics are being forwarded from.
