Getting Data In

How to list hosts with no events

Hi! I'm trying to find out hosts that are not sending any data to Splunk at certain time frame. Using command "host=* | chart count by host" I can get a list of hosts with event count summary, but it doesn't show those where the value is 0. Is there a way to get a list of hosts with no events?
Thanks!

This should help. Note that when the search comes back empty you don't have any hosts that are not currently sending data during the specific time period.
