Pie chart syntax for disk use

I have the values I just don't have the syntax.

host="app-1" source="df" | stats max(storage_used) as storage_used by host 

Where do I include: max(TotalMBytes)?

Not sure how to convert that into a pie chart.

HI @fsrodriguez,

With your provided search I think you are looking for like below search.

host="app-1" source="df" 
| stats max(storage_used) as storage_used max(TotalMBytes) as TotalMBytes
| eval storage_unused=(TotalMBytes-storage_used) 
| table storage_used storage_unused 
| transpose

Convert viz to a pie chart. Bytes to GB is pending in this search.

Another thing I'm guessing you want the latest status of disk volume of the particular host. So can you please try the search?

host="app-1" source="df" | head 1 |
| eval storage_unused=(TotalMBytes-storage_used) 
| table storage_used storage_unused 
| transpose

Convert viz to a pie chart. Bytes to GB is pending in this search.

Thanks

A pie chart is only going to work with one value broken out by label, and needs to be split by that label. Try something like:

host="app-1" source="df" | timechart max(storage_used) BY filesystem
