Alright guys I hope you are ready for this question because I almost lot my mind! btw THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ALL THE HELP! I have been working on this problem for WEEKS and I have to kindly ask for your help I am now helpning ut a company that has splunk for the iot stuff and they are a welding company and want me to use SPL to count the number of events (alerts) between sequeantial stages of a 3-stage process .. so let me please break it down for you.. Information related to the process: A test Subject is made to go through a 3 stage process with stages A, B and C respectively the first one being A, second B and finally C; a test Subject may abandon the process at stages A or B and then start again from point A, each time the process takes place a dataset is created with the IDENTIFICATION of the test subject, the TIMESTAMP in which the stage took place and a unique VISIT_CODE During any stage, a test subject may trigger an "ALERT" and this will be recorded with the TIMESTAMP, ALERT_CODE and test subject IDENTIFICATION. WhatI need: to count how many ALERTS where generated by the test subjects between stages A and B, between stages B and C and finally how many ALERTS where generated after C. Please note that a test subject may at some point abandon the process to later on start again from point A. To get the data from the process I do this: index=bearing_P1 and source=PROBES
| table * and I get STAGE TEST SUBJECT TIMESTAMP VISIT_CODE A XYU-1 10 BKO A XYU-1 15 JUJD B XYU-1 20 DUDH A FF-09 25 KSIWJD B FF-09 30 AJAKAM C FF-09 35 ZISKS A UU-89 40 NNXJD B UU-89 45 DDUWO A I-44 50 JIWIW A W-6 55 SHDN B W-6 60 IWOLS C W-6 65 JDDD A U-90 70 DJDKSMS B U-90 75 NDJSM A T-87 80 DNDJDK and for the triggered alerts I use index=alerts source=probes_w1
| table * and I get TEST SUBJECT TIMESTAMP ALERT_CODE XYU-1 11 AYUJ-151571406 XYU-1 12 AYUJ-487008829 XYU-1 28 AYUJ-211990388 FF-09 32 AYUJ-4177221842 W-6 56 AYUJ-1300211351 W-6 63 AYUJ-3014305494 I-44 67 AYUJ-4454800551 U-90 73 AYUJ-1079921935 U-90 76 AYUJ-3348911727 U-90 79 AYUJ-2381219626 T-87 82 AYUJ-4778326278 W-6 89 AYUJ-3915716168 I want to be able to achieve something like this: Alerts between Stages A & B including alerts from test subjects that abandoned the process in the attempt nth at stage A Alerts between Stages B & C including alerts from test subjects that abandoned the process in the attempt nth at stage B Alerts after stage C AYUJ-151571406 AYUJ-211990388 AYUJ-3915716168 AYUJ-487008829 AYUJ-3014305494 AYUJ-1300211351 AYUJ-3348911727 AYUJ-1079921935 AYUJ-4177221842 AYUJ-4778326278 AYUJ-2381219626 AYUJ-4454800551 I know this may seem imposible but if there is a way to have this done in splunk lets say for a period of time of one year that willl be so great, I have tried autoregress, and a bunch of commands but I have not gotten even an inch close to me desired utput plus I fear that if I do at somepoint the data will truncate... Thank you so much to everyone who can point me in the right direction kindly, Cindy
