Fixed problems

1.0.2 Fixes

All issues resolved in 1.0.2 are listed here.

  • Engine stops sending cluster performance data with source=ClusterComputeResourcePerf and perftype=clSvcs (SOLNVMW-2178).
  • vm_snapshots view should show "Approx. Delete Time" correctly when checkbox "Also display deleted snapshots" is enabled in the middle panel (SOLNVMW-2182).
  • TimeInvSnapshot lookup does not store _time which causes the deleted notion of snapshots to be highly dependent on the frequency of inventory data (SOLNVMW-2181).
  • Do not use host names in engine.conf. (SOLNVMW-1949). The workaround is to use fully qualified domain names for VMware servers.
  • In large environments inventory related summary lookups can take up large amounts of memory. If this happens, please contact Splunk support for assistance (SOLNVMW-1948).
  • Some multi-line log files may be parsed incorrectly (SOLNVMW-1900).
  • The logincreator tool does not work with existing local users on vCenter Server (SOLNVMW-1893).
  • In the ESX/i Log Browser view for vobd related logs, messages can be displayed incorrectly in the Object field (SOLNVMW-1892).
