Add daily stats to Search

I was able to find this search that gives me the number of users(IONS) who disconnected 10 or more times however it gives me the total based on time.  I would like to display a daily number for 30 days in a line chart.  For example Monday there were 10 users who disconnected over 10 time and so on for the rest of week. I can't seem to get the timechart to work with this:

index=gbts-vconnection sourcetype=VMWareVDM_debug "onEvent: DISCONNECTED" (host=Host1 OR host=host2)
| rex field=_raw "(?ms)^(?:[^:\\n]*:){5}(?P<IONS>[^;]+)(?:[^:\\n]*:){8}(?P<Device>[^;]+)(?:[^;\\n]*;){4}\\w+:(?P<VDI>\\w+)" offset_field=_extracted_fields_bounds
| stats count by Device IONS
| where count >= 10
| appendpipe [|stats count as IONS | eval Device="Total"]

If I understand you correctly the query should work like this:

 

index=gbts-vconnection sourcetype=VMWareVDM_debug "onEvent: DISCONNECTED" (host=Host1 OR host=host2)
| rex field=_raw "(?ms)^(?:[^:\\n]*:){5}(?P<IONS>[^;]+)(?:[^:\\n]*:){8}(?P<Device>[^;]+)(?:[^;\\n]*;){4}\\w+:(?P<VDI>\\w+)" offset_field=_extracted_fields_bounds
| eventstats count as failed_count by Device IONS
| where failed_count>=10
| timechart dc(IONS) as IONS span=1d

 

This will show you the amount of user with more than 10 failed logons on each day.

I spoke too soon.  It appears that the numbers are not accurate.  It shows the proper number if I set the time picker to last 24 hours but once I select last 30 days the number for yesterday increase by hundreds.

My bad. I forgot to add a time variable to the eventstats. By disregarding time the query checks whether a user has more than 10 failed logins over the entire search span. If your data already has a date stamp then you can use that. Alternatively you could adjust the query like this:

index=gbts-vconnection sourcetype=VMWareVDM_debug "onEvent: DISCONNECTED" (host=Host1 OR host=host2)
| rex field=_raw "(?ms)^(?:[^:\\n]*:){5}(?P<IONS>[^;]+)(?:[^:\\n]*:){8}(?P<Device>[^;]+)(?:[^;\\n]*;){4}\\w+:(?P<VDI>\\w+)" offset_field=_extracted_fields_bounds
| eval temp_date = strftime(_time, "%Y-%m-%d")
| eventstats count as failed_count by IONS,temp_date
| where failed_count>=10
| timechart dc(IONS) as IONS span=1d

That worked like a charm!!  Thanks again!
