We have a a scheduled query that returns certain search names ...how do we automate such that the scheduled query that returns certain search names automatically runs those searches again ?
Appreciate inputs!

Say your search returns a row per to-be-run saved search names in the field search, then you can run those using map:

your scheduled search returning a field search per row | map search="savedsearch $search$"

Can we use the backfill summary index script without summary action and modify for alerts ?

In that case time ranges and alert actions matter a lot as well - that complicates things a lot, I don't think there's a reasonable fully automatic one-search solution to that.

Now the scheduled search is returning some scheduled distributed search names which had at that schedule time lost connection with peer...when we use map wont it run the same search using a system time for schedule ...while we wanted the time the connectivity was lost as the schedule time ...how can we do the same ?
