Hi,

 

My goal is to create a dashboard, preferably with the new dashboards not with the old feature,

 

So far I get GB totals with this query

 

$Log_Type = ingestion.log_type
$Log_Count = ingestion.log_count


match:
$Log_Type
outcome:

$Total_Size_GB = math.round(sum(ingestion.log_volume) / (1024 * 1024 * 1024), 1)
order:
$Total_Size_GB desc

 And I’m able to retrieve the number of logs that each server generate with this query:

$Log_Type = $e.metadata.log_type
$Host = $e.intermediary.hostname
$Date = timestamp.get_date($e.metadata.event_timestamp.seconds)
match:
$Date, $Log_Type,$Host
outcome:
$Event_Count = count($e.metadata.event_type)
order:
$Date desc

But have no luck getting the number of GB each server generates in a daily fashion.

 

¿can someone hepl me with this task?

I don’t see a way to do that by looking at the ingestion schema. Maybe you could use ingestion.collector_id and correlate that information with SIEM feeds; however, for Bindplane agents, the best way would probably be to use either Cloud Monitoring or simply rely on the log count rather than GB ingested.

You can calculate daily GB per server by combining your existing queries. First, extract the date and hostname as you did, then sum the ingestion.log_volume per host per day and convert to GB. Example logic:

$Date = timestamp.get_date($e.metadata.event_timestamp.seconds)
$Host = $e.intermediary.hostname
match:
$Date, $Host
outcome:
$Daily_GB = math.round(sum($e.metadata.log_volume) / (1024*1024*1024), 1)
order:
$Date desc


This groups logs by server and date and gives you daily GB totals. Use this in the new dashboard builder to visualize per-host daily ingestion.
