I have a field called size that takes the form:
1 2 3 4
I want to find someway to evaluate size so that is sums all the numbers.
for example, eval totalsize =
basically my field size is a collection of sizes, and i want to sum it up for the total size.
stats sum is not an option, since it sums it will sum everything over every single event.I need it to sum one event at a time.
to be very specific, here is a picture of what i am going for:

how do i get totalsize?
thanks a bunch
EDIT:
ehh
i tried something like that
unfortunately my host fields arent unique
What im doing is getting file sizes from hosts at different times.
So for example, host1 could have a different number of files at each event, and i only want to get the sum at each particular event
Is there any other way?
This solution assumes that the numbers are separated by a single space, and that the host field is unique:

| eval newNums=split(size," ")
| mvexpand newNums
| stats sum(newNums) as TotalSize by host
