Our splunk is receiving events from network devices, which contains hostname, eventuei="error reason", eventtime.
1. I need to create a report which display the hostname, corresponding error reason , eventtime and no. of alerts generated
2. I need to create a dashboard with device name in the x-axis no. of alerts in the y-axis
3. A complete dashboard which shows total no. of hosts in my company, no. of hosts working fine, no. of hosts are down based on error reason

  1. index=opennms sourcetype=event | stats values(eval(strftime(_time,"%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S"))) as time_new list(nodeid) as hostname count by eventuei Note: The assumption here is that you have the hostnames in the field "nodeid"
  2. index=opennms sourcetype=event | stats values(nodeid) as hostname count by eventuei | fields - eventuei after running this search go to the visualization tab and select chart type as "clolumn chart" and then save it as a dashboard
  3. index=opennms sourcetype=event | timechart span=1h distinct_count(nodeid) as hostcount - for "total no. of hosts in my company" save it as a dashboard panel

i will look into it again when i have some more time, meanwhile can you check if the above searches work/meet your requirements.
