Hi @Bisho-Fouad .. on the DMC / license master.. you can find out the license usage of a specific host. 

pls suggest us exactly which step/status you are in.. 

 

As you are asking GUI.. the SPL gives more control actually. 

thanks and best regards,
Sekar

Hi @Bisho-Fouad 

Here's an example search to solve your question...

 

host=<your host> ``` and whatever else you need to filter your data ````
| eval bytes = length(_raw)  ``` generally 1 character = 1 byte ```
| stats sum(bytes) AS bytes BY source   ``` this gives the size of each log, assuming the source is the name of the log file ```
| eval kilobytes = bytes/1024)
| evenstats sum(kilobytes) AS total_kb

 

Hope that helps
