I have a graph displaying how many workstations have out of date virus definitions. How can I exclude certain systems from the count?

On my dashboard, I have a graph displaying how many workstations have out of date virus definitions. Several of these workstations are likely sitting on a shelf in the client room waiting to be redeployed. Is there a way to exclude these systems in Splunk for a more accurate virus definitions count? Thank you

First of all, show your query in the dashboard, and explain what is the pattern or names of the undesired values.

Generally you could use "field!=pc1 field!=pc2..."

Like this:
index=.... ... field!=pc1 field!=pc2... |chart ...

Is there a way to identify these system (sitting in client room waiting for redpeloyment)? Do they report Splunk from there? What is the query that you're using in your dashboard?
