Hello splunkers i have an iis log that i am testing against and i have a need to test for a specified range the time field in the log is formatted like this 2020 08 23t21 25 33 437 0400 2020 08 23t21 25 33 437 0400 i want to query everything between 21 25 33 and 21 25 43 2020 08 23t21 25 33 437.
Splunk query between time range.
I am trying to search for an event that happens in a specific time range in splunk but i want that search to encompass all of the data i have indexed which covers a wide date range.
For example i want to see if a line in an indexed log file contains the word error between the hours of 9am and 4pm from the 25 days worth of logs i have indexed.
Here is what the query looks like.
In the above image we give a time range between last 7 days to last 15 days.
Set the range field to the names of any attribute name that the value of the input field is within.
So the data in between these two days is displayed.
The values in the range field are based on the numeric ranges that you specify.
Use the rangemap command to categorize the values in a numeric field.
So there are alerts at 70 80 90.
So it provides a finer control over that data range you can pick for your analysis.
A time range that you specify in the search bar or in a saved search overrides the time range that is selected in the time range picker.
Specify date and time ranges.
But now that i ve added a time picker i m trying to find out how i can use the range selected in the time picker in my search.
So my search would be looking at anything firstfound between dates selected in my time picker.
For information about using string and numeric fields in functions and nesting functions see evaluation functions.
The following list contains the functions that you can use to calculate dates and time.
Hi i have alerts when the number goes above certain of the disk usage.
Use between to specify that events must occur between an earliest and latest date.
The command adds in a new field called range to each event and displays the category in the range field.
Searching the time and fields when an event is processed by splunk software its timestamp is saved as the default field time.
It is similar to selecting the time subset but it is through commands rather than the option of clicking at a specific time line bar.
Date and time functions.
Previously i just wanted to see anything firstfound within the last 30 days so i used the below query.
But when there is a 70 alert i get alerted twice because of 70 and also 60 usage.
You can also use the date range and date time range options to specify a custom time range.
For example if you specify a time range of last 24 hours in the time range picker and in the search bar you specify earliest 30m latest now the search only looks at events that have a timestamp within.
As mentioned before if no events are returned select a different time range such 4 days ago or 1 week ago.
