How to plot http error % as timeseries? (when I add _time or timeseries count Iam getting DAG: Execution exception (search cancelled)).

Query:

index=abc source=efg cdn=pqr "message.reqHost"="*xyz*" earliest=-15m latest=now

| eventstats count As Total

| eval Status=case(like(dm_status,"4%"),"HTTPERR", like(dm_status,"5%"),"HTTPERR") | stats count AS ERR_Count by Status, Total

| eval ERR_PERCENTAGE=round(((ERR_Count)/Total)*100,2)

| eval ERR_PERCENTAGE = if(isnull(ERR_PERCENTAGE),"0",ERR_PERCENTAGE)
