How to see if two different hosts have failure event records?

I need to return a "yes"
if (host=A has events > 0 and host=B has events > 0)
else '"no"

sundareshr,

Won't that search give either host=A or host=B (...or maybe both) ? I need to return a "yes' when I have failure record from BOTH host=A and host=B

Try this

index=yourindex host=A OR host=B "failure" | stats count | eval result=if(count>0, "Yes", "No")

I need when both host a and host b return an event

Yes I believe that will do it, you da man...Is there a way to pass the value of 'result' to a windows batchfile
that will be triggered to run when this alert runs?
