its issue with your logging of syslog as its getting re-indexed. You can check inputs and get that fixed though if you want to continue as it is and remove duplicates use : source="/var/adm/syslog/syslog.log" ERRLOGGER | dedup _raw

I think this will be a good start

source="/var/adm/syslog/syslog.log" ERRLOGGER
