How to extract data using regex?

Hi All,

I Have data in below mentioned format.
I need to extract value CUP_Used and cup_used using regex and store it as a separate filed.
But in below mentioned pattern CUP_Used and cup_used is available in 2nd or 3rd place in unstructured data set. I need to extract only CUP_Used and cup_used.

[15330442604] DATA SHOW: Enter;LUV-127lE$131.CBE.data.com;CUP_Used;
[15330744495] DATA Thing: SVR~1232.CBE.data.com;CUP_Used;
[15380142481] DATA SHOW: Enter@FFDDEEF;s99vNN147.CBE.data.com;CUP_Used;
[15380142481] DATA SHOW: Enter@FFDDEEF;s99vNN147.CBE.data.com;cup_used;
[15380142481] DATA SHOW: En;cup_used;

I have used the below mentioned rex to extract CUP_Used and cup_used. But I'm getting values as mentioned below. But i don't need values like s,LUV etc . With single rex i need to extract the value CUP_Used and cup_used.

LUV
CUP_Used
s
s
cup_used

\d\d\]\s[^:]+:\s[^;]+;(?P<hard>[a-zA-Z_]+)

\d\d\]\s[^:]+:\s[^;]+;(?P<hard>[^;]+);

Thanks in advance..

You keep coming up with new sample patterns. You'll really need to come up with a clear definition of what you want to extract, in order for anyone to come up with a working regex.

For starters: please be more clear than "its not working". What results do you get and which of those are correct and which are not?

From your earlier explanations, it seemed as if you want to capture the last 'field' in the line, but apparently that is not entirely the case? If you just want to check for the presence of one of those words you now mentioned (cup_used,CUP_Used,Splunk,splunk1,working), then try this:

| rex "(?<hard>cup_used|CUP_Used|Splunk|splunk1|working)"
