When KV Store got restarted

Master_Blaster

Hi,

We have a search head cluster of 8 members in which KV store is failing frequently. We used to start services manually.

I'd like to create a report which should contains when exactly  kv store got failed & when it got up. I am not sure in which logs we can find this info. 
Could anyone help me with the query for same ?
Thanks

I believe you want to search for "MongoDB starting"

index=_internal  sourcetype=mongod "MongoDB starting"

In alerts for splunk admins https://splunkbase.splunk.com/app/3796/ I have an alert to detect a lack of logging from mongod.log so combined with richgalloway's answer this might work for you...

Unfortunately, the query doesn't help.  I see multiple entries of below message where we didn't do any actual restart.
