Yes? Could you please tell us more about which eventtypes you want to rename how, and we might be able to help you?

UPDATE: So, to get rid of the et_MP_ prefix, you could use rex in sed mode.

... | rex field=eventtype mode=sed "s/et_MP_//"

yeah sure..

I have eventtypes names like this

1.et_MP_Accepted

2.et_MP_Rejected

Now i have written a query like this..

sourcetype="MPdata" | eval Field=mvfilter(eventtype like "et_MP_%") | top Field

No i am getting my results as

o/p:

1.et_MP_Accepted 30

2.et_MP_Rejected 20

I want to rename these eventtypes as et_MP_Accepted as Accepted and et_MP_Rejected as Rejected in the output...

How can i do that ?? . Please Help !!
