eval function help with if else statement

hi i would like some help doing an eval function where based on 3 values of fields will determine if the eval field value be either OK or BAD

 

example these are the 4 fields in total (hostname, "chassis ready", result, synchronize)

hostname= alpha        "chassis ready"=yes    result=pass   synchronize=no

hostname= beta          "chassis ready"=yes    result=pass   synchronize=yes

hostname= charlie        "chassis ready"=no   result=pass   synchronize=yes

 

i would like to do an eval for 'overallpass' where if   ("chassis ready"=yes    result=pass   synchronize=yes) will make 'overallpass' = OK and everything else will be overallpass = 'Not Okay" by hostname

 

so based on the top table, 

here is the final output.

*************************************

Hostname         overallpass

alpha                   Not Okay

bravo                   OK

charlie                 Not Okay

Use this

| eval overallpass=if('chassis ready'="yes" AND result="pass" AND synchronize="yes", "OK", "Not Okay")
| stats values(overallpass) as overallpass by hostname

NB: The chassis ready must be surrounded by SINGLE quotes as eval needs to understand the space is part of the field name. The values must be double quoted.
