8. Date = 02/10/17 14:15:00,script = test1, id = 29251, log=Script exit normal

Script still running

  1. Date = 02/10/17 14:15:00,script = test2, id = 29251, log=Script started
  2. Date = 02/10/17 14:15:00,script = test2, id = 29251, log=calling wget without post parameter
  3. Date = 02/10/17 14:15:00,script = test2, id = 29251, log=wget command exit code: 0

Give this a try

pid script host=dc1 "log= SUCCESS" OR "log= FAILURE" OR "log=Script " script =test1 OR
script =test2 
| dedup script 
| eval Status=case( statusString=="exit", "success", statusString=="terminated", "failed", 
1=1, "Still in progress") 
| table script Status| rename script as JobName

Explanation:

1) The dedup command, by default, will keep only the most recent record for each script. (Technically, it keeps the first record found, and they are retrieved with the most-recent first.) That's all you need for current status.
2) Your code has only two possible values for script, so there's no need for the case statement setting JobName.

So, somesoni2's code is the simplest that will get you the status of those two jobs.

If you wanted start time, end time, and so on, then more code (and actually a different method) would be needed.
