Metrics average

Hi,

I am new to splunk metrics search. I am AWS/EBS metrics to splunk. I want to calculate the average throughput and number of IOPS for my Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) volume. I found solutions the solution in AWS: https://repost.aws/knowledge-center/ebs-cloudwatch-metrics-throughput-iops, I don't know how to search it in Splunk.

This is the max I can do atm

| mpreview index=my-index | search namespace="AWS/EBS" metricName=VolumeReadOps

Really appreciate, if someone help me out,

I assume that my-index is a metrics index. But still unclear what is being asked. Generally only you will know what data you get back from AWS/EBS and which metrics are of interest to your use case. Once you know which metrics you are interested in and what kind of stats (e.g., avg) you want to perform, mstats is your friend.

If you have difficulty figure out which metrics are available, mstats is also your friend:

| mstats count(*) as * where index=my-index ``` my-index must be a metric index ``` | transpose column_name=metric_name

Hope this helps.
