Hai

i have 7 installation log files.. now i have to merge or join all log files and then start querying on that.. is it possible to do that?

actually i want to know :
For each component, how much memory (RAM and HDD) got consumed due to the installation (check what were the values before and after installation and do the difference) ?

Thank u

I'm not sure how to club the actual log files since they will be picked from separate source paths and be considered as individual files, but if you want to query on all the log files, try OR

index=idx1 source="yourpath1\source1" OR source="yourpath2\source2" OR source="yourpath3\source3"

and if they are different files under same root folder, you can use wildcard too:
source= "yourpath\source*"

Let me know if this helps

You can ingest those log files via an input, or oneshot, or via the Web interface. Then you can search on those files.
