Timechart different job

I would like to draw a time chart that shows the jobs that are running.

For example:
- Job A was running from 8am to 9am
- Job B was running from 8:30am to 11am
- Job C was running from 2pm to 5pm

Then the time chart will have a line going from 8am to 9am, another line from 8:30am to 11am and another from 2pm to 5pm. Each line will have different color and if I hover the mouse over the lines, the labels will show the name of the jobs Job A, Job B and Job C respectively.

How can I accomplish that?

Thanks.

I got it to work with this search and drew the chart in splitSeries mode.

sourcetype="Engine" Server="ABC" | eval runvalue=8 | timechart limit=0 values(runvalue) by JobName
