In the following eval statement, what is the value of description if the status is 503? index=main | eval description=case(status==200, "OK", status==404, "Not found", status==500, "Internal Server Error")
In the following eval statement, what is the value of description if the status is 503? index=main | eval description=case(status==200, "OK", status==404, "Not found", status==500, "Internal Server Error")
In the given eval statement using the case function, the description field is assigned a value based on the condition of the status field. The conditions specified are for status codes 200, 404, and 500. Since the status is 503, none of the conditions are met. According to the documentation of the case function in Splunk, if no conditions are true, the function defaults to NULL. Therefore, the description field would contain no value.
