Input files have changed format, so how do I edit my configurations to keep the old data and handle the new data?

Hi, Here is my situation (and I know it isn't ideal, but I have to work with it for now) I have scripts that pre-process log files to a standard format that Splunk digests. The format isn't really that important here, but the problem is that I have to add two more fields to this file that is created. **How do I handle this change in the format of my input file with the setup that I currently have?** **I want the old data to remain unchanged and also perhaps add a default value for the 2 new fields ?** **inputs.conf** [monitor:///var/log/error-monitoring] followTail = 0 sourcetype = psv host = host_regex = ([^/.]+). index = test-index **props.conf** [psv] REPORT-PSV = psv-delim pulldown_type = 1 NO_BINARY_CHECK = 1 SHOULD_LINEMERGE = false TIME_FORMAT = %Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S,%3N **transforms.conf** [psv-delim] DELIMS = "|" FIELDS = server,service,date,type,requestId,class,message .... So essentially my **new** input file would have **server,service,date,type,requestId,class,message,user,id** Halp.
