    Abstract: In a computer-implemented method for configuring a distributed computer system comprising a plurality of nodes of a plurality of node classes, configuration files for a plurality of nodes of each of the plurality of node classes are stored in a central repository. The configuration files include information representing a desired system state of the distributed computer system, and the distributed computer system operates to keep an actual system state of the distributed computer system consistent with the desired system state. The plurality of node classes includes forwarder nodes for receiving data from an input source, indexer nodes for indexing the data, and search head nodes for searching the data. Responsive to receiving changes to the configuration files, the changes are propagated to nodes of the plurality of nodes impacted by the changes based on a node class of the nodes impacted by the changes.

    Abstract: The invention is directed towards enabling data volume and data type based licensing of software in a distributed system of a plurality of remote and/or local nodes. The invention enables measuring and optionally restricting the use of software based on one or more provided licenses that restrict the amount and type of data that may be processed by the software. New and older licenses may be added together for a single, bulk entitlement for a given volume of data processing for one or all types of data. Different users in the same enterprise may combine license entitlements too. Also, a new license can be acquired repeatedly, without requiring the issuance of combined licenses by the issuing authority and/or the revocation of prior licenses.

    Abstract: Embodiments are directed towards managing within a cluster environment having a plurality of indexers for data storage using redundancy the data being managed using a generation identifier, such that a primary indexer is designated for a given generation of data. When a master device for the cluster fails, data may continue to be stored using redundancy, and data searches performed may still be performed.

    Abstract: Embodiments are directed towards a dynamic change evaluation mechanism, whereby items having a detected possible change are scheduled for re-evaluation for possible changes at a higher frequency than items detected to not have previously changed, while those items detected as not to have changed are dynamically scheduled for re-evaluation based on an evaluation backlog that may be in turn based, in part, on a time from when an item is assigned an expiration time to when the item is evaluated. In one embodiment, a possibly changed item may be assigned a new expiration time independent of the evaluation backlog. In another embodiment, if no change is detected, then the item may be assigned a new expiration time as a function of a previous expiration time and on the evaluation backlog.

    Abstract: A computing device receives an ingest preview request to preview events to be stored by at least one indexer. Responsive to the ingest preview request, the computing device sends a subscription request to the forwarders. The forwarders receive the subscription request and intercept the events that are being sent to at least one of the indexers. The forwarders then clone matching events to the subscription request and responds to the computing device with the matching events. When the computing device receives the matching events, the computing device adds the matching events to a dispatch directory. The user interface is then populated with events in the dispatch directory.

    Abstract: A log-to-metrics transformation system includes a log-to-metrics application executing on a processor. The log-to-metrics transformation system receives a format associated with machine data, and further receives, via a first graphical control, a first set of metric identifiers corresponding to a first set of metrics associated with the machine data. The log-to-metrics transformation system generates a first set of mappings between the first set of metric identifiers and a first set of field values included in the machine data. The log-to-metrics transformation system stores the first set of mappings and an association with the format of the machine data. The log-to-metrics transformation system, based on the first set of mappings, causes the first set of field values to be extracted from the machine data. Further, a first metric included in the first set of metrics is determined based on at least a portion of the first set of field values.
