Split field value into multiple field names and values & normalization

Hello to the community!

I have the following jboss log:

[2018-12-07 14:17:23,661] [INFO] [xxx.common.ldap.connections.TimedAuthenticator] (default task-4) ()   Authentication succeeded for dn: CN=XXX,OU=YYY,DC=external,DC=ZZZ,DC=LLL

Using the jboss app, I have the following field name and value:

signature=Authentication succeeded for dn: CN=XXX,OU=YYY,DC=external,DC=ZZZ,DC=LLL

How can I keep this value and on top of that create the following name/values:

event=Authentication succeeded
action=success
user=XXX
src_bunit=YYY

My goal is to normalize the logs and map them to CIM in order to be parsed properly by Enterprise Security App.

Any clues?

You can use FIELDALIAS in props.conf. Or use an eval at search time.
