System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

Administrators need to deploy and configure the Splunk Add-on for Microsoft Windows (Splunk_TA_windows) to collect Windows Event Log, Perfmon, and host-monitoring data, while ensuring proper CIM mappings and placement across forwarders, indexers, and search tiers.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Renders reviewable inputs.conf overlays for WinEventLog (Security/System/Application, Defender, PowerShell), Perfmon, and WinHostMon stanzas.
  • Creates and places the wineventlog and perfmon indexes and enforces forwarder/DE placement (UF/HF/search-tier) for CIM alignment.
  • Provides a guided workflow for installation, index creation, forwarder rollout via splunk-agent-management-setup, and post-deployment validation.

Quick Start

Install the Splunk Windows TA from Splunkbase, render the inputs and overlays, deploy the app to Windows forwarders, and validate CIM readiness.
