Hello @premranjithj,

I use the following search to list the top sources by size:

index=_internal source="*license_usage.log" type=usage
| eval KB= b/1024| chart sum(KB) as sum_KB by s | eval sum_KB=round(sum_KB,0) | sort - sum_KB
| head 10
| rename s as source

Set the time picker accordingly, e.g. Last 24 hours.

if you want those two specific sources then use:

index=_internal source="*license_usage.log" type=usage (s="xx1.log" OR s="xx2.log")
| eval KB= b/1024| chart sum(KB) as sum_KB by s | eval sum_KB=round(sum_KB,0)
| rename s as source
