Hi All,

i am writing a query with the following:

index=a0_payservutil_generic_app_audit_npd "kubernetes.labels.release"="mms-au" MNDT|rex field=log "eventName=\"*(?<eventName>[^,\"\s]+)"|rex field=log "serviceName=\"*(?<serviceName>[^\"]+)"|rex field=log "elapsed=\"*(?<elapsed>[^,\"\s]+)" |search eventName="ACCOUNT_DETAIL" AND serviceName="Alias " | eval newtime=round((elapsed/1000),2)|stats count(newtime) AS TotalNoOfEvents,count(eval(newtime>=1)) AS SLACrossedEvents|eval perc=((SLACrossedEvents/TotalNoOfEvents)*100)|where perc>1|stats avg(newtime) as avg |eval calc=if(newtime>=1,avg,0)|eval eventName="ACCOUNT_DETAIL"|eval serviceName="Alias"|fields eventName serviceName TotalNoOfEvents SLACrossedEvents perc calc

i need to calculate average time of events which crossed SLA, 
for ex: if 2 events crossed SLA (elapsedtime is greater than 1 sec)..in that one event took 3 sec and another event took 2 seconds then we should display 2.5 as average in particular time.i am not able to fetch it.Can you please help me on the same.

Thanks in advance

HI Sir,

Error in 'stats' command: The eval expression for dynamic field 'eval(if(newtime>=1),newtime,"")' is invalid. Error='The operator at ',newtime,""' is invalid.'.

HI @vineela,

you have to add to your stats command other values using eval,if, something like this:

index=a0_payservutil_generic_app_audit_npd "kubernetes.labels.release"="mms-au" MNDT
| rex field=log "eventName=\"*(?<eventName>[^,\"\s]+)"
| rex field=log "serviceName=\"*(?<serviceName>[^\"]+)"
| rex field=log "elapsed=\"*(?<elapsed>[^,\"\s]+)" 
| search eventName="ACCOUNT_DETAIL" AND serviceName="Alias " 
| eval newtime=round((elapsed/1000),2)
| stats 
   count(newtime) AS TotalNoOfEvents
   count(eval(newtime>=1)) AS SLACrossedEvents
   avg(eval(if(newtime>=1),newtime,"")) AS average
| eval perc=((SLACrossedEvents/TotalNoOfEvents)*100)
| where perc>1
| stats avg(newtime) as avg values(average9 AS average
| eval calc=if(newtime>=1,avg,0)
| eval eventName="ACCOUNT_DETAIL"
| eval serviceName="Alias"
| fields eventName serviceName TotalNoOfEvents SLACrossedEvents perc calc average

See how to use this approach.

Ciao.

Giuseppe
