Are you trying to filter the results of the metadata query to only show hosts from your lookup file that contain YES in the H field? If so, give this a shot:

| metadata type=hosts index=* 
| search 
 [| inputlookup watchlist1.csv 
 |search H="YES"
 | rename Host as host
 | fields host ] 
| stats min(firstTime) as firstTime, max(recentTime) as recentTime, max(lastTime) as lastTime, sum(totalCount) as totalCount by host 
| sort lastTime 
| convert cTime(firstTime) ctime(recentTime) ctime(lastTime)
| fields host, firstTime, recentTime, lastTime, totalCount

Do you have the fully qualified name somewhere in your logs or in a lookup?

Hi Mate,

As we are getting the duplicate results from the csv table and the results are coming with both normal host name and hostname with FQDNS. How do we resolve this and please suggest.

Example:
host
host.com

Thanks.
