Splunk Search

How to return search results for a field with a duration greater than 0 for each month?

ttudor

I have the following fields stu_id, duration, and date_month. I want to do a search to display all sru_id's that have a duration greater than 0 in every one of the following months: Sept, Oct, Nov, Dec and Jan. I can get as far as returning stu_id's with duration greater than 0, but I cannot figure out how to trim those results to only include stu_id's where they had duration greater than 0 for every month listed above.

Any ideas?

Use chart command to get yourself rows that represent unique stu_id values, where the fields are stu_id, duration, and then the names of the months. Under each month is the total duration for that stu_id in that month. Then it's a simple search to filter those rows to the stu_id values that had durations greater than zero in all 5 months.

<your search> | chart sum(duration) as duration over stu_id by date_month | search september>0 october>0 november>0 december>0 january>0

Try this

index=yourIndex sourcetype=yourSourcetype duration>0 (date_month="septempber" OR date_month="october" OR date_month="november" OR date_month="december" OR date_month="january") | table sru_id duration date_month

Thanks. I tried that I do not need and OR, I need AND. The stu_ids must have been used in all of the months, not september OR october.
