averaging the CPU values from the recent six events

Hi,

I'm attempting to calculate the average of the last six CPU event values. If the average of those six events is greater than 95%, an alert must be sent. I basically tried the below query, but it produced nothing. Can someone help?

index=* sourcetype=cpu CPU=all host=* earliest=-35m | rename "%_Idle_Time" as Percent_Idle_Time | eval CpuUsage=coalesce(100-Percent_Idle_Time,100-PercentIdleTime) | streamstats count by host | where count<=6 | stats avg(values(CpuUsage)) as "Average of CpuUsage last 6 intervals(5mins range)" by host

 

Regards,
Satheesh
