Display Events Within a Specific Time Range

Hello,

I want to create a report which currently shows me the events by hour. I want to change these to only between 22:00-08:00. Is there anyway to set in the search to only show results within those hours or specify which hours you want to see results for?

Thanks,

My report shows events per hour, example:

22:00 - 10
23:00 - 7
00:00 - 3
01:00 - 2

I want it to show data only for hours 22:00 to 08:00. I do not want to see anything from 09:00 to 21:00.

Hi,

As you said you want a report that will summarize hourly events(as of now 24h) you want specific duration like 00:00 to 8:00. Suppose you have scheduled your report at 9.00 AM then you can calculate your required time duration like this earliest=-9h@h latest=-1h@h. Like the above calculation you can change the earliest and latest as per your scheduled timing.

the search will be,

index=_internal earliest=-9h@h latest=-1h@h | timechart span=1h count

Cheers!
