  • Updates add-on to use collector version 0.135.0
  • Removes splunk_otel_log_file configuration option. In unmanaged scenarios, this file would grow in case of errors and would not be rotated or truncated by operators, leading to problems with disk space use. Now, by default, collector logs errors to splunkd.log on all platforms. If you want more detailed logging or if you want to log to a different file, modify the service.telemetry.logs section in the YAML files under the configs/ directory of the add-on.
