Hi,
i am trying to break the event which we receive from our hand held devices into separate events but its not working properly.
The logs doesn't have any LINE BREAKER and i am using /msg> as delimiter but its not working.
Can some one help me in breaking this event?

Try this for your line breaking configuration

[yoursourcetype]
SHOULD_LINEMERGE=false
LINE_BREAKER=(\/msg\>)*(?=\<msg)
TIME_PREFIX=d='
TIME_FORMAT=%Y/%m/%d %H:%M:%S
MAX_TIMESTAMP_LOOKAHEAD=19

Thanks @somesoni2.
It worked but the end of the event is looking as < instead of

PDT Socket Created642949672951<

It's actually removing string in first brackets in LINE_BREAKER. If you need that you can use below,

[yoursourcetype]
 SHOULD_LINEMERGE=false
 LINE_BREAKER=(\<msg)
 TIME_PREFIX=d='
 TIME_FORMAT=%Y/%m/%d %H:%M:%S
 MAX_TIMESTAMP_LOOKAHEAD=19
 SEDCMD-addheader = s/^(.+)/<msg \1/
