Hi @hungln9,

in general, you have to find a rule to apply the regex: if in your case you want the string after INFo, you could use a regex like this:

| rex "INFO\s+(?<instance>[^ ]+)"

Tell me if I can help you more, otherwise, please, accept my answer for the other people of Community.

Ciao.

Thanks for your support, @gcusello 

I mean that I have a lot of instances(instance1, instance2....), and I want to show all of them on only 1 time chart, can you tell me, how can I do that?

Hi @hungln9,

it mainly depends on how many instances you have to display.

There a limit in chart but it's very high (hundreds of bars), the main limit is the readability of your chart.

maybe you could create more panels displaying a group of instances.

Hi @gcusello ,

I have many sources in search result, can you guide me how can I group some resource into 1 chart?

index=my_index*
| rex "Max Memory Used: (?<max_memory_used>\d+)"
| timechart max(max_memory_used) AS max_memory_used by source

hungln9_0-1649841124208.png

I tried to group with this query, but seem it's incorrect:

index=my_index* (source=source1 or source=2)
| rex "Max Memory Used: (?<max_memory_used>\d+)"
| timechart max(max_memory_used) AS max_memory_used by source

Hi @hungln9,

it's always better to ask a new question to the Community, so more people can help you better and quicker!

Anyway, using the second search, you use the same grouping options than the first but you filter your results  (in teh main search) taking only events from two sources.

if it doesn't run. check the "(source=source1 OR source=source2)" condition and check if the regex you used is correct for those events..

Anyway, probably host could be more interesting than source.

Ciao.

I want to create send email alert when "max memory used" is greater than 1024.

I'm trying to save search results as alert, but can not find the way to set or define this condition.

Hi @hungln9.,

put this condition at the end of your search and set your alert to trigger when results>0:

index=your_index
| rex "INFO\s+(?<instance>[^ ]+)"
| timechart max(max_memory_used) AS max_memory_used
| where max_memory_used>1024

Ciao.

Thanks for your support @gcusello 

I tried to add condition, but seem it not work, even I tried with value=10

index=my_index*
| rex "Max Memory Used: (?<max_memory_used>\d+)"
| timechart max(max_memory_used) AS max_memory_used(MB)
| rex "INFO Done Lamda function\s+(?<D365>[^ ]+)"
|where max_memory_used>10

hungln9_0-1649236181382.png

While without condition, It worked

index=my_index*
| rex "Max Memory Used: (?<max_memory_used>\d+)"
| timechart max(max_memory_used) AS max_memory_used(MB)
| rex "INFO Done Lamda function\s+(?<D365>[^ ]+)"

Hi @hungln9,

in the timechart, you renamed "max_memory_used(MB)" whilein the where condition you used "max_memory_used" that's different!

Hi @hungln9,

no problems for your questions!

Anyway, in this case you have to configure throttle in your alert, the period, after a triggering that the alert doesn't run.

You can find it in the Alert definition.

Ciao.

hi @hungln9,

if you're sure that the maxmemory is always expressed in MB, you could run something like this:

index=your_index
| rex "Max Memory Used: (?<max_memory_used>\d+)"
| timechart max(max_memory_used) AS max_memory_used

if instead you could also have GB, you should modify a little the search:

index=your_index
| rex "Max Memory Used: (?<max_memory_used>\d+)\s+(?<mem_unit>\w+)"
| eval max_memory_used=if(mem_unit="GB",max_memory_used*1024,max_memory_used)
| timechart max(max_memory_used) AS max_memory_used

Ciao.

Giuseppe
