Hello,

How to calculate distinct count with condition?

How to calculate unique vuln that has score >0, group by ip?


Before calculation

ipvulnscore
1.1.1.1vuln10
1.1.1.1vuln10
1.1.1.1vuln23
1.1.1.1vuln23
1.1.1.1vuln23
1.1.1.1vuln37
1.1.1.1vuln37
2.2.2.2vuln10
2.2.2.2vuln40
2.2.2.2vuln55
2.2.2.2vuln55


After calculation

ipdc(vuln)dc(vuln) score > 0

Wow, it worked..    I will accept this as solution.   Thank you so much
What did the "eval if" part do?
if score > 0, then include the vuln, if not assign null function, which means DC will ignore it?

eval(if(score > 0,vuln,null()))

Correct, null values (as returned by the null() function) are ignored by the dc() function

Hello @ITWhisperer 
How do I calculate sum of unique vuln that has score >0?   
in my mind, it's like this: sum (dc(vuln) score > 0)    but when i tried it, it didn't work

ipdc(vuln)dc(vuln) score > 0sum (dc(vuln) score > 0)
1.1.1.13210
2.2.2.2315


Thank you so much
