I try use macros to get external indexes in child dataset VPN, but search with tstats on this dataset doesn't work.  Example of search:

 

 

| tstats values(sourcetype) as sourcetype from datamodel=authentication.authentication where nodename=authentication.VPN by nodename

 

 

  But when I explicitly enumerate the indexes, then everything works! And also it work with macros when i use search:

 

 

| from datamodel ...

 

 


What's problem?

If you use the pivot interface and select the VPN child do you get results?

Can you try this?
| tstats prestats=true summariesonly=false allow_old_summaries=true values(sourcetype) as sourcetype FROM datamodel=Authentication WHERE nodename=Authentication.VPN 
| stats dedup_splitvals=t values(sourcetype)

Hope I was able to help you. If so, some karma would be appreciated.
