hi
why "MemoryUsage" doenst return any results?
eval FreeMemory = round(Value, 0). " MB"
| eval TotalMemory = round((TotalPhysicalMemory / 1024 / 1024), 0). " MB"
| eval MemoryUsage = (TotalMemory - FreeMemory) / TotalMemory
| stats last(FreeMemory) as "Free Memory", last(TotalMemory) as "Total memory", values(MemoryUsage) as "Memory Usage" by host
Is anybody can help me??

Because you have added MB to FreeMemory and TotalMemory in your early evals they are no longer numeric, so you cant do maths on them any more.
remove the ."MB" from the earlier evals, and add it to them at the end:
| eval Free Memory='Free Memory'."MB", Total memory='Total memory'."MB", Memory Usage='Memory Usage'."MB"
thus:
| eval FreeMemory = round(Value, 0)
| eval TotalMemory = round((TotalPhysicalMemory / 1024 / 1024), 0)
| eval MemoryUsage = (TotalMemory - FreeMemory) / TotalMemory
| stats last(FreeMemory) as "Free Memory", last(TotalMemory) as "Total memory", values(MemoryUsage) as "Memory Usage" by host
| eval Free Memory='Free Memory'."MB", Total memory='Total memory'."MB", Memory Usage='Memory Usage'."MB"
