Is there a way to delay splunk universal forwarder from monitoring specific files?

Hello, We have an issue monitoring os_metrics logs where the log entries are generated from a Windows command wmic and written to a file under this path `D:\catmstarFiles\systems\main\logs\os_metrics*.log` The issue is that events are distorted even after placing the props (see below) in our heavy forwarder and search head cluster. The same set of files are read correctly if we are coping it to test server and monitoring it from there, however, in real-time the events are not breaking correctly as expected. So, just wanted to know if there is an attribute that can be used in inputs.conf to reduce uf file reading/monitoring time? or Is it something to be done at source end to delay writing files to this particular path? Can anyone please advise, if it's something to be done at source end I will then reach out to the concerned team and get it discussed. Thanks in advance [sourcetype] SHOULD_LINEMERGE=true NO_BINARY_CHECK=true CHARSET=AUTO BREAK_ONLY_BEFORE=\w+\s+\d+\/\d+\/\d+\s+\d+:\d+:\d+.\d+ disabled=false TIME_PREFIX=\w+\s TIME_FORMAT=%m/%d/%Y %H:%M:%S.%N
