Hi,
I made a lot of research and tests but I can't figure how to...
Is it possible to search a sequence of differents events in all the logs indexed in Splunk.
I mean, if in the search window, I have something like this :
....
event A
....
....
event B
....
Is there a search command which permit to search the sequence "event A then event B".
And after, use the result to create an alarm when I have this sequence of two events ?
I'm not an english speakers, so please forgive my bad english.
I hope my request is understandable anyway.

Hello
You can use the transaction command with the parameters startswith and endswith to define transaction boundaries

Yes the transaction comman with bounderies would be a good start, but also use event tags. Tag both events with something meaningfull.
Event A has tag=Error1
Event_B has tag=Error2
index=someindex AND (tag=Error1 or tag=Error2) | Transaction host startswith="unable to" endswith="connection failed" maxspan=1m

Keep in mind that is only an example.
Hope this helps or gets you started. Dont forget to vote up and accept answers that help.
