Abstract: Resegmenting chunks of data for load balancing is disclosed. A plurality of first chunks of data is received. The plurality of first chunks of data includes one or more entries that include raw data produced by a component of an information technology environment and that reflects activity in the information technology environment. The plurality of first chunks of data is resegmented into a plurality of second chunks of data based on a source type of the plurality of first chunks. A first subset of the plurality of second chunks of data is distributed to a first indexer of a set of indexers. An occurrence of a trigger event is determined, and in response to the trigger event, a second subset of the plurality of second chunks of data is distributed to a second indexer of the set of indexers.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to providing dynamic indexer discovery. An index manager, which may also be known as a cluster master, is configured to track the statuses and capabilities of indexers and provide the statuses and capabilities obtained from the indexers to data collectors, such as forwarders. The data collectors may use the statuses and capabilities associated with the indexers to load balance transmission of data to the indexers. Dynamic indexer discovery may eliminate the need to manually reconfigure data collectors when the status of an indexer changes because the information may be obtained from the index manager without the need to reinitialize the data collectors.

Abstract translation: 本公开旨在提供动态索引器发现。 索引管理器也可以被称为集群主机，被配置为跟踪索引器的状态和能力，并将从索引器获得的状态和功能提供给诸如转发器之类的数据收集器。 数据收集器可以使用与索引器相关联的状态和功能将数据的传输负载平衡到索引器。 当索引器的状态发生变化时，动态索引器发现可能会消除手动重新配置数据收集器的需要，因为可以从索引管理器获取信息，而无需重新初始化数据收集器。
