We need to create a splunk alet to get the total number of products processed as part of Job execution. But below three logs are indexing during diff.time intervals with same logging information. Could you please help me to retrieve the latest log i.e, Wed May 14 11:01:00 EDT log data.

Wed May 14 11:01:00 EDT 2014|INFO|com.macys.seo.monitor.JobMonitor|printJobProgress:22|SEO_JOB_MONITOR >>>>>>> Processed 129,442 products out of 129,442 products <<<<<< |ScheduledExecutorFactoryBean-1
Wed May 14 10:31:00 EDT 2014|INFO|com.macys.seo.monitor.JobMonitor|printJobProgress:22|SEO_JOB_MONITOR >>>>>>> Processed 94,812 products out of 129,442 products <<<<<< |ScheduledExecutorFactoryBean-1
Wed May 14 10:00:59 EDT 2014|INFO|com.macys.seo.monitor.JobMonitor|printJobProgress:22|SEO_JOB_MONITOR >>>>>>> Processed 40,890 products out of 129,442 products <<<<<< |ScheduledExecutorFactoryBean-1

Hi pratap924,

you could do something like this:

 com.macys.seo.monitor SEO_JOB_MONITOR | tail 1

this will search for com.macys.seo.monitor and SEO_JOB_MONITOR and returns the last one found.

hope this helps ...

cheers, MuS
