Hi All,

i have this calculation and at the end iam using where to get only what i need. splunk suggests that put this into search

index= xyz
AND source=abc
AND sourcetype=S1
AND client="BOFA"
AND
status_code -- how do i get this to get only the status codes that are 
>=199 and <300  --> these belong to  my success bucket
>=499                      --> These belong to my error bucket



| eval Derived_Status_Code=

case(

status_code>=199 and status_code<300,"Success",
status_code>=499,"Errors",
1=1,"Others"  ``` I do not need anything that is not in the above conditions
)
|Table <>
|Where Derived_Status_Code IN ("Errors',"Success")


I want to avoid where and get this into search using AND

Thank you so much for your time

You can simply do

...  ((status_code>=199 status_code<300) OR (status_code>=499))

Ahh... you found out yourself what I've just wrote you 🙂

Good job.

Remember that case matters in field names. It might matter or not for field values depending on how you're using the condition.

something | search a=b

will match whenever field a has value of either b or B

But

something | where a="B"

will match only upper-case B.

tired both of the below... i only see errors which are  >=499..for some reason i dont see the success ones
none of the 200 or showing...something is wrong

AND ((status_code>=199 status_Code<300) OR (status_code>=499) )  - understand that there is an implied AND in it

 

AND ((status_code>=199 AND status_Code<300) OR (status_code>=499) )  --explicit AND mentioned

Case matters for field names so if you indeed use

status_Code<300

when the field is named

status_code

it won't match
