i'm trying to create a chart that has something like this

computername - 7 days ago - 6 days ago - 5 days ago ... etc. for total kb used each day to do some stats on it.

my search string is

index="_internal" source="*metrics.log" per_host_thruput | chart sum(kb) by series useother=false to provide for a single day but i'm not sure how to overlay them all into one chart.

any help would be awesome, thanks!

Why not use timechart?

index="_internal" source="*metrics.log" per_host_thruput  | timechart useother=false span=1d sum(kb) by series
