Hi,

If I am understanding correctlty your schedule search will run at every 3 hours & at 00 minutes and fetch last 3 hours data, in that case earliest time will be -3h@h and latest time will be either now or @h

I hope this helps.

Thanks,
Harshil

@karthi2809 data come at 0300 HRS and and you want to schedule alert from 0600 at every 3 hours. is that understanding correct ? if so , schedule your alerts from 0300 using CRON and run it for last 3 hours.
