Hi Guys, I am new to splunk. I need to run a query to extract the system name value which is repeated twice in the same log event. Logs in one event are: user: user1 system: system1 user:user2 system: system2 output should look like below: output1 output2 system1 system2 cheers.

@ITWhisperer ,

 

Logs in one event are:

user: user1

system: system1

 

user:user2

system: system2

 

output should look like below:

output1      output2

system1     system2

 

I tried as you suggested. Not returning any values.

@ITWhisperer ,

  Its working now. Made a slight change from your command. Not sure it its appropriate or not. is there any way we can compare these two values  or same or not (if system1=system2) 

 

| rex max_match=2 "system:\s(?<system>[\S]+)"
| eval system1=mvindex(system,-1)
| eval system2=mvindex(system,0)
