Splunk Search

Lookup search - display events which aren't matching

Hi there,

I want to check, which System aren't having forwarders installed.
I am using the 'all_forwarder' search macro which comes with the Deployment Monitor App.
With this macro search I get all Forwarders.

So on the one hand there is a lookup file with all servers in my landscape. On the other hand I have 'all_forwarder' macro which displays all forwarders.

Now I want to check the lookup against the 'all_forwader' macro.
The result should list all servers which are not matching with the Hostlist from the 'all forwarder'

lookup : all_servers
fields with the server host : sourceHost

macro search: all_forwarders
fields with the forwarder hosts : sourceHost

Thanks in advance

Regards

This should do it, if I understood your question correctly:

| inputlookup all_servers | search NOT [search `all_forwarders` | fields sourceHost]
