Hi,

Below are the three different source types from which I am trying to get the specific values as highlighted.

sourcetype: cg_log

2017-02-15T05:47:45.107+1100:
123564.781: [GC 123564.781: [ParameterNew: 637043K, 0.004 secs] 120590K->600476K(20761856K), 0.004 secs]

sourcetype: resp_log

2017-02-15 05:51:09.012890 id:155678,name:[AB05:RMS] Prod: apacheweb : Pool15 application pool,hostname:apacheweb.com,resptime:1378

sourcetype: jmx

Hi kteng,

I might not be following exactly what you are getting at, but this search will turn up all results from those sourcetypes, and do extractions for those fields

(sourcetype=cg_log OR sourcetype=resp_log OR sourcetype=jmx) | rex ".*GC\s(?<GC>[^:]+):.*" | rex ".*resptime:(?<resptime>\d+)\D" | rex ".*\s(?<jmx_field>\d+)$"

Or, at least, those regexes should be close.

The important might be to notice that the initial search string has a couple ORs to say "I want all results for these three sourcetypes"

Once you have those results, you can do whatever processing you like, as well as additional filtering.

Please let me know if this answers your question! 😄
