Splunk Search

How do you make a 'stats count' where field count > 20... is grouped by another field?

We need a report that lists the USERIDS that have more than 20 failed logins per DBNAME (a failed login is RETURNCODE!=0). In the report, I would like to see not just the USERID, RETURNCODE, DBNAME and count, but I would also like to see it grouped by USERHOST.

However, when I include USERHOST in the query, it does not include instances of when, for example, 15 failed logins come from HOST A and 15 failed logins come from HOST B:

ACTION="100" RETURNCODE!=0 |stats count by DBNAME, USERID, RETURNCODE, USERHOST | search count >=20

The above query will only include users that have 20 or more failed logins from the same host.

I can omit USERHOST and then the report will include the combined total. But then we have to run separate reports to query and see what the USERHOSTs are:

ACTION="100" RETURNCODE!=0 |stats count by DBNAME, USERID, RETURNCODE | search count >=20

Any help would be greatly appreciated. TIA!

Try this

ACTION="100" RETURNCODE!=0 |stats count , values(USERHOST)  as USERHOST by DBNAME, USERID, RETURNCODE | search count >=20
