Known issues

Publication date	Defect number	Description
2017-04-16	DBX-4019	Events indexed by DB Connect 3.0.0 do not include the automatic time fields date_hour, date_minute, date_year, date_month, and date_mday. Additionally, props.conf overrides cannot be used to alter the indexed time. Workaround: Use calculated fields to extract those fields on search time: 1.In Splunk UI, go to Settings->Fields->Calculate fields->New 2.In the popup, we can configure based on sourcetype. For example, if we want to data_hour to be present, then we define the "Eval Expression" like: strftime(_time, "%H"), then give it a meaningful name. 3.Next time if we search against this sourcetype, fields will be added automatically.
2017-02-14	DBX-3841	DB Connect 3.0.0 does not support a new installation of Splunk Add-on for MySQL or Splunk Add-on for Nagios Core. Additionally, the template files included in Splunk Add-on for McAfee, Splunk Add-on for Oracle Database, and Splunk Add-on for Microsoft SQL will not work if copied into DB Connect 3.
