FSChange - local

Splunk can be configured to monitor changes to your local file system as they occur. To do this, edit inputs.conf and enable the fschange scripted input. Once configured, Splunk will dutifully monitor any and all changes to the file system you specify.

More information on how to enable and configure the fschange input can be found at "Monitor changes to your filesystem" in this manual.
