Splunk Technical Support

Splunk Standard Support is included in every subscription. For details about the levels of technical support provided, read Support Programs. Only authorized support contacts from your company can open cases. Your Splunk support agreement specifies who your authorized contacts are. Your Support contract specifies a number of authorized contacts, and an expiration date. One of your contacts is a Support portal administrator, who can update the list. Only an authorized contact can open a case and track its status. An authorized contact can file a case by logging in to splunk.com, then navigating to the Support Portal.

Splunk Support portal

Designated users can manage operational contacts for their account and file support cases using the Support portal. Operational contacts are the people in your organization who are notified when their environment undergoes maintenance or experiences an event that affects performance.

To manage operational contacts:

  1. Go to My Operational Contacts in the Support portal.
  2. Follow the instructions on the page to add, edit, and remove operational contacts for your environment.

To file a case on the Support portal:

  1. From the Splunk installation is? dropdown, select the state of your deployment.
  2. In Subject, summarize your issue. Splunk Support sees the first 250 characters in this field.
  3. In What Product are you having trouble with? select .
  4. In What OS are you using? select Linux.
  5. Leave What OS Version are you using? blank.
  6. In I need help with... select a category that applies to your issue.
  7. In What is the impact... explain briefly how this issue disrupts your work.
  8. In the Problem Description, be thorough. For issues (as opposed to enhancement requests), include the exact time of the issue and its duration, the type of Splunk instance experiencing the issue (for example, forwarder, search head, or indexers), and any relevant screen shots.
  9. Include Steps to reproduce if you've found a specific scenario that triggers the issue.
  10. Click Submit. The portal directs you to a screen with a case number and sends you an email containing the case number.

Splunk Support replies to the case creator by email. You can update the case by replying to the email (be sure to keep the tracking ID in the email subject line). You can also update the case, check on its status, or close a case using the support portal.
