Team,
When I search for particular sourcetype, source and index I want to have one interesting field may be called as msg and value should be whole _raw message.
How can I achieve this via configuration?
Please help.

Add or modify the props.conf stanza for your sourcetype like this:

 [yoursourcetype]
 EXTRACT-complete-raw = ^(?P<msg>.*)$

This will add a field msg during search time containing the whole event text.
