Version 8.2.2203
This version includes the following known issues:
Date filed or added | Issue number | Description |
---|---|---|
2023-06-29 | SPL-241621 | Dashboards are loading slower than typical. Workaround: Set disable_highcharts_accessibility=true in web-features.conf to restore dashboard performance. |
2022-12-02 | SPL-226717 | The behavior of the maxspan and maxpause arguments for the transaction command are currently reversed from the way they are documented in transaction in the Splunk Platform Search Reference. This bug will be fixed in a future release. The following are the current behaviors for the
|
2022-10-12 | SPL-226038 | In a transparent mode federated tstats search of an accelerated data model that is located only on the FSH, results are returned only from the FSH, not the RSH, when summariesonly=t |
2022-08-23 | SPL-228969 | Federated Search: In Splunk Web federated index UI you cannot provide data model Dataset Name values that contain a dot ( . ) character Workaround:
This is a limitation for users of standard mode federated search who want to set up federated indexes that map to data model datasets. It means that such users cannot set up federated indexes for data model datasets that are subordinate to a root dataset. For example, if the root data model dataset is |
2022-08-19 | SPL-223193 | "Open in Search" function doesn't work with chained searches in Dashboard Studio when the time range depends on an input/token, showing error "Invalid earliest_time" |
2022-08-12 | SPL-224045 | Data intended for Summary Indexes may be be misrouted to the default "main" index and lead to incomplete search results for searches using the Summary Index. |
2022-07-29 | SPL-227633 | Error : Script execution failed for external search command 'runshellscript' Workaround: The setting precalculate_required_fields_for_alerts=0 can be set on saved searches that have no other alert actions attached aside from the "Run A Script" action, to quash the error. For saved searches that have multiple alert action attached, this may not be safe as it will disable back propagation of required fields for all alert actions, which might result in the parent search extracting more fields than required, which could negatively impact performance for that search. |
2022-07-27 | SPL-227530 | Splunk-to-Splunk federated search: After upgrade, the remote search head gets stuck in a loop of transferring proxy bundles to the remote indexers and failing. Workaround:
To stop a proxy bundle (pb_t1) from being sent endlessly from the remote deployment to it's indexers, you need to ensure that the local deployment generates a new bundle. Once this one new bundle is generated and sent to the remote deployment (as (pb_t2), the remote deployment will stop sending the previous bundle to the indexers.
|
2022-07-21 | SPL-227163 | Frequent disable and enable updates of ssg_enable_modular_input causes search head instability and configuration file replication delays. Workaround: Disable the splunk_secure_gateway app. |
2022-06-15 | SPL-226877 | Federated Search UI Error: Cannot create saved search dataset for federated index if dataset name contains space Workaround:
Use REST API to create the federated saved search instead: |
2022-03-25 | SPL-224816 | Standard mode federated searches with tstats fail or produce unexpected behavior when prestats=t |
2022-03-17 | SPL-220932 | On the Classic Experience, private app upload fails without any error message even when the AppInspect field check_that_app_passes_slim_validation_for_cloud triggers a warning.Workaround: Validate with AppInspect report that this check ( check_that_app_passes_slim_validation_for_cloud ) is triggering a warning. Address the warning to pass this section. Errors are typically related to SLIM and the manifest file(s) packaged within the app.
|
2022-03-09 | SPL-220289 | Federated Search Transparent Mode: Commands that have subsearches like join and append may result in failures on RSH due to missing application context Workaround: If the search is being run in an application context that does not exist on the remote deployment, install the missing application on the remote deployment. |
2022-02-25 | SPL-219793 | Some commands in federated searches return incorrect resultCount values when run in Verbose modeWorkaround: |
2022-02-22 | SPL-219540 | outputlookup command in a federated search creates output on RSH |
2022-02-08 | SPL-218842 | Some reporting commands in federated search return incorrect eventCount Workaround: |
2021-10-21 | SPL-214005 | Victoria Experience self-service app install: Lookups deployed by apps cannot be managed via UI, Admin Config Service (ACS API), or Splunk REST APIs. Workarounds:
