I'm using Splunk and Splunk forwarder (UF) for log collecting.

I have questions that "How to Splunk collect log file?", "What is data collect technic?"

So, I tried to find answer and found a few informations from Splunk doc, .conf's ppt, etc.

But, In Splunk document and .conf's document only explain that How to Splunkd work and Processor work

I just want know that which is log file collect tech.

Does Splunkd use tail command for collect log files? or that uses other commands?

Splunk uses proprietary code to monitor files.
