Hi @mailtosnsolutio,

Question 1: You should remove hostname from group by statement to show total count and there is no need dedup before stats. Adding fwdType=uf will show only UF instances.

index="_internal" source="*metrics.log*" group=tcpin_connections fwdType=uf 
| stats dc(hostname) as TotalCount by version,os

Question 2:

You can use below rest query on your monitoring console instance and collect it into a summary index. After that you will be able to query summary index on any search instance;

| rest splunk_server_group=* /services/server/info | table host server_roles version
