Hello All,

How can we get a list of sources which did not have any data for last 24 hours in Splunk for a particular index?

When am trying to use metadata, the result is coming from sourcetype, but not from the source. below is my search:

| metadata type=sourcetypes index=myindex | rename totalCount as Count firstTime as "First Event" lastTime as "Last Event" recentTime as "Last Update" | fieldformat Count=tostring(Count, "commas") | fieldformat "First Event"=strftime('First Event', "%c") | fieldformat "Last Event"=strftime('Last Event', "%c") | fieldformat "Last Update"=strftime('Last Update', "%c")

Could you please help us on this?

May be something like this

| metadata type=sources index=myindex | eval age=now()-recentTime | where age>86400 | rename totalCount as Count firstTime as "First Event" lastTime as "Last Event" recentTime as "Last Update" | fieldformat Count=tostring(Count, "commas") | fieldformat "First Event"=strftime('First Event', "%c") | fieldformat "Last Event"=strftime('Last Event', "%c") | fieldformat "Last Update"=strftime('Last Update', "%c") | fieldformat age=tostring(age,"duration")

I use the below, usually for hosts, but should work for sourcetypes, but not for sources...

 | metadata type=sourcetypes index=myindex
    | fields - totalCount,type
    | eval ageInSeconds = (now()- firstTime)
    | search ageInSeconds > 86400
    | convert ctime(lastTime) ctime(recentTime) ctime(firstTime)
    | table sourcetypes ageInSeconds lastTime recentTime | sort - ageInSeconds

Adjust the ageInSeconds to the time frame you want to check..
