How do I compare field names?

gunturu_nagasri — Tue, 05 Jan 2016 06:33:44 GMT

p.123.label - hostname 1
p.123.status - status of the server 1

p.234.label - hostname 2
p.234.status - status of the server2

... n servers list

the above mentioned 123 and 234 are dynamic.

How can the field names be compared? I need the output in the table format like each hostname and its status details respectively? Is it possible?

are these single line or multi-line?
If its multi-line, is there a common field in those events?
If its multi-line, are they coming in the mentioned order ie; hostname 1, status 1 , hostname2,status etc?

I am unable to attach the screen shot here from my desktop. It is poping for a Image url. Can i know how can i directy attach the screenshot without any links.
It is a single line. It is not the feild value . It is the feild name. And the feild name has a comman begining and ending and in between nos are dynamic.

Query :

| rest splunk_server=* /services/shcluster/status | fields peers*label, peers*status

Hi,

Just playing 🙂

| rest splunk_server=* /services/shcluster/status |fields peers*label |transpose |table column "row 1" |rename "row 1" as label
|append [ rest splunk_server=* /services/shcluster/status | fields peers*status |transpose |table column "row 1" |rename "row 1" as status]
|rex field=column "[^\.]+.(?<id>[^\.]+)"
|stats last(label) as label last(status) as status by id

Hope i help you

Thanks a lot, This helped me , but i have a question i dont want results to be displayed by id. I want the results to be displayed by comparing the id value from the first search matching the id value with the second search.

Eg : Id of host = 123, Id of status = 123 then its respective Hostname and status should be displayed in tabular format.

i.e Search results of two searches should be combined by comparing the regex value.

Hi,

But this is what it does... if you use this part:

 | rest splunk_server=* /services/shcluster/status |fields peers*label |transpose |table column "row 1" |rename "row 1" as label
 |append [ rest splunk_server=* /services/shcluster/status | fields peers*status |transpose |table column "row 1" |rename "row 1" as status]

You will see that add the to tables in one.

Then I extract the ID without .label and .status

|rex field=column "[^\.]+.(?<id>[^\.]+)"

And then with the stats I "join" both in one.

 |stats last(label) as label last(status) as status by id
