How to expand events that contain multivalue fields into separate events with unique field value pairs?

chvnc
Explorer

The problem here is my actual events are as below
1.event_id=1 name1=x name2=y name3=z responsetime1=4 responsetime2=5 responsetime3=6
2.event_id=2 name1=a name2=b name3=c responsetime1=7 responsetime3=8 responsetime3=9

I need something like this

events
1.event_id=1 name=x responsetime=4
2.event_id=1 name=y responsetime=5
3.event_id=1 name=z responsetime=6
4.event_id=2 name=a responsetime=7
5.event_id=2 name=b responsetime=8
6.event_id=2 name=c responsetime=9

See if this works

base search 
| rex field=x max_match=0 "event_id=(?<event_id>\d+)" 
| rex field=x max_match=0 "name\d=(?<name>\w+)" 
| rex field=x max_match=0 "responsetime\d=(?<responsetime>\d+)" 
| eval z=mvzip(name, responsetime) 
| mvexpand z 
| rex field=z "(?<name>[^,]+),(?<responsetime>.*)" 
| streamstats count as event_id 
| table event_id name responsetime
