Im having an issue when trying to dedup some values. Here are the logs of servers states im having in Splunk, from the latest to the oldest
1 - UP
2 - UP
3 - UP
4 - UP
5 - DOWN
6 - DOWN
7 - DOWN
8 - DOWN
9 - DOWN
When trying to dedup with dedup state consecutive=true
i get the following results :
1 - UP
5 - DOWN
Is there any way to get instead the following results ?
4 - UP
5 - DOWN
That is to say the oldest result for UP values, and the latest for DOWN values.
Thanks in advance !
You can do this
your base search giving latest to earliest listing of states
| reverse | dedup state consecutive=true
OR
your base search giving latest to earliest listing of states
| dedup state consecutive=true sortby +_time
This does not give me the expected result...It is exactly the same problem but reversed...
9 - DOWN
4 - UP
