Hi Deepali529,
Could you describe better your request?
Real Data you said are Linux logs or Splunk logs?
Every way, if you want to monitor real data Splunk logs you have to search index=_internal and put the time period to Real data choosing a Time window you like.
After you can refine your search choosing a sourcetype.

Splunk logs are written in some files $SPLUNK_HOME/var/log/splunk (splunkd.log, ...) and indexed by Splunk in the _internal index.

Bye.
Giuseppe
