Parameters:
value - true to enable online bucket repair, false if not.

setFrozenTimePeriodInSecs

public void setFrozenTimePeriodInSecs(int seconds)
Sets the maximum age for a bucket, after which the data in this index rolls to frozen. Freezing data removes it from the index. To archive data, see coldToFrozenDir and coldToFrozenScript.

Parameters:

See Also:
setColdToFrozenDir(java.lang.String), setColdToFrozenScript(java.lang.String)

setMaxBloomBackfillBucketAge

Parameters:
time - The time that indicates a bucket age.

setMaxConcurrentOptimizes

Sets the maximum data size before triggering a roll from hot to warm buckets for this index. You can also specify a value to let Splunk autotune this parameter: use "auto_high_volume" for high-volume indexes (such as the main index, or one that gets over 10GB of data per day); otherwise, use "auto".

Parameters:
size - The size in MB, or an autotune string.
See Also:
getMaxDataSize()

setMaxHotBuckets

public void setMaxHotBuckets(int size)
Sets the maximum number of hot buckets that can exist per index.

When maxHotBuckets is exceeded, Splunk rolls the least recently used (LRU) hot bucket to warm. Both normal hot buckets and quarantined hot buckets count towards this total. This setting operates independently of MaxHotIdleSecs, which can also cause hot buckets to roll.

Parameters:
size - The maximum number of hot buckets per index.
See Also:
setMaxHotIdleSecs(int), getMaxHotIdleSecs()

setMaxHotIdleSecs

public void setMaxHotIdleSecs(int seconds)
Sets the maximum lifetime of a hot bucket for this index.

If a hot bucket exceeds this value, Splunk rolls it to warm. This setting operates independently of MaxHotBuckets, which can also cause hot buckets to roll.

Parameters:

See Also:
setMaxHotBuckets(int), getMaxHotBuckets()

setMaxHotSpanSecs

public void setMaxHotSpanSecs(int seconds)
Sets the upper bound of the target maximum timespan of hot and warm buckets for this index.

Note: If you set this too small, you can get an explosion of hot and warm buckets in the file system. The system sets a lower bound implicitly for this parameter at 3600, but this advanced parameter should be set with care and understanding of the characteristics of your data.

Parameters:
seconds - The upper bound of the target maximum timespan, in seconds.

setMaxMemMB

public void setMaxMemMB(int memory)
Sets the amount of memory allocated for buffering a single .tsidx file before flushing to disk.

Parameters:
memory - The amount of memory, in MB.

setMaxMetaEntries

public void setMaxMetaEntries(int entries)
Sets the maximum number of unique lines in .data files in a bucket, which may help to reduce memory consumption.

If this value is exceeded, a hot bucket is rolled to prevent a further increase. If your buckets are rolling due to Strings.data hitting this limit, the culprit might be the "punct" field in your data. If you don't use that field, it might be better to just disable this (see the props.conf.spec in $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/system/README).

Parameters:
entries - The maximum number of unique lines. A value of 0 means infinite lines.

setMaxTimeUnreplicatedNoAcks

public void setMaxTimeUnreplicatedNoAcks(int value)
Sets the upper limit for how long an event can sit in a raw slice. This value applies only when replication is enabled for this index, and is ignored otherwise.
If there are any acknowledged events sharing this raw slice, the MaxTimeUnreplicatedWithAcksparamater applies instead.

Parameters:
value - The upper limit, in seconds. A value of 0 disables this setting.

setMaxTimeUnreplicatedWithAcks

public void setMaxTimeUnreplicatedWithAcks(int value)
Sets the upper limit for how long an event can sit unacknowledged in a raw slice. This value only applies when indexer acknowledgement is enabled on forwarders and replication is enabled with clustering.

This number should not exceed the acknowledgement timeout configured on any forwarder.

Parameters:
value - The upper limit, in seconds. A value of 0 disables this setting (not recommended).

setMaxTotalDataSizeMB

public void setMaxTotalDataSizeMB(int size)
Sets the maximum size for this index. If an index grows larger than this value, the oldest data is frozen.

Parameters:
size - The maximum index size, in MB.

setMaxWarmDBCount

public void setMaxWarmDBCount(int buckets)
Sets the maximum number of warm buckets. If this number is exceeded, the warm buckets with the lowest value for their latest times will be moved to cold.

Parameters:
buckets - The maximum number of warm buckets.

setMinRawFileSyncSecs

public void setMinRawFileSyncSecs(java.lang.String frequency)
Sets the frequency at which Splunkd forces a file system sync while compressing journal slices for this index. A value of "disable" disables this feature completely, while a value of 0 forces a file-system sync after completing compression of every journal slice.

Parameters:
frequency - The file-system sync frequency, as an integer or "disable".

setPartialServiceMetaPeriod

public void setPartialServiceMetaPeriod(int frequency)
Sets the frequency at which metadata is for partially synced (synced in-place) for this index. A value of 0 disables partial syncing, so metadata is only synced on the ServiceMetaPeriod interval.

Parameters:
frequency - The metadata sync interval, in seconds.

setServiceMetaPeriod(int), getServiceMetaPeriod()

setQuarantineFutureSecs

public void setQuarantineFutureSecs(int window)
Sets a quarantine for events that are timestamped in the future to help prevent main hot buckets from being polluted with fringe events. Events that are newer than "now" plus this value are quarantined.

Parameters:
window - The future event-time quarantine, in seconds.

setQuarantinePastSecs

public void setQuarantinePastSecs(int window)
Sets a quarantine for events that are timestamped in the past to help prevent main hot buckets from being polluted with fringe events. Events that are older than "now" plus this value are quarantined.

Parameters:
window - The past event-time quarantine, in seconds.

setRawChunkSizeBytes

public void setRawChunkSizeBytes(int size)
Sets the target uncompressed size of individual raw slices in the rawdata journal for this index.

This parameter only specifies a target chunk size. The actual chunk size might be slightly larger by an amount proportional to an individual event size.

WARNING: This is an advanced parameter. Only change it if you are instructed to do so by Splunk Support.

Parameters:
size - The target uncompressed size, in bytes. (0 is not a valid value--if 0 is used, this parameter is set to the default value.)

setRotatePeriodInSecs

public void setRotatePeriodInSecs(int frequency)
Sets the frequency to check for the need to create a new hot bucket and the need to roll or freeze any warm or cold buckets for this index.

Parameters:
frequency - The check frequency, in seconds.

setServiceMetaPeriod

public void setServiceMetaPeriod(int frequency)
Sets the frequency at which metadata is synced to disk for this index.

Parameters:
frequency - The meta data sync frequency, in seconds.

setSyncMeta

public void setSyncMeta(boolean sync)
Sets whether the sync operation is called before the file descriptor is closed on metadata updates.

This functionality improves the integrity of metadata files, especially with regard to operating system crashes and machine failures.

WARNING: This is an advanced parameter. Only change it if you are instructed to do so by Splunk Support.

Parameters:
sync - true to call the sync operation before the file descriptor is closed on metadata updates, false if not.

setThrottleCheckPeriod

public void setThrottleCheckPeriod(int frequency)
Sets the frequency at which Splunk checks for an index throttling condition.

Parameters:
frequency - The frequency of the throttling check, in seconds.

submit

public void submit(java.lang.String data)
Submits an event to this index through an HTTP POST request.

Parameters:
data - The event data to post.

submit

public void submit(Args args,
                   java.lang.String data)
Submits an event to this index through an HTTP POST request.

Parameters:
args - Optional arguments for this request. Valid parameters are: "host", "host_regex", "source", and "sourcetype".
data - The event data to post.

upload

public void upload(java.lang.String filename)
Uploads a file to this index as an event stream.

Note: This file must be directly accessible by the Splunk server.

Parameters:
filename - The path and filename.

upload

public void upload(java.lang.String filename,
                   Args args)
Uploads a file to this index as an event stream.

Note: This file must be directly accessible by the Splunk server.

Parameters:
filename - The path and filename.
args - Optional arguments for this request. Valid parameters are: "host", "sourcetype", "rename-source". More found at: http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/latest/RESTAPI/RESTinput#data.2Finputs.2Foneshot
