Hello All ,

I am facing some challenges in building the below Grok pattern.

`%{WORD:Server}%{SPACE}%{WORD:Component}%{SPACE}%{NOTSPACE:ComponentStatus}%{SPACE}%{WORD:CG_ALIAS}%{SPACE}%{WORD:CompStartMode}%{SPACE}%{NUMBER:RunningTasks:int}%{SPACE}%{NUMBER:MaxTasks:int}`

Sample Data is

```
SXXX000XXXA SCCObjMgr_enu Partially Offline CallCenter Auto 129 210  

```

Here "Partially Offline" is the Componentstatus i want to print

But Output coming as

```
{
  "MaxTasks": 210,
  "CompStartMode": "Auto",
  "RunningTasks": 129,
  "Server": "SCCObjMgr_enu",
  "ComponentStatus": "Offline",
  "CG_ALIAS": "CallCenter",
  "Component": "Partially"
} 

```

Where as my required output is

```
{
  "MaxTasks": 210,
  "CompStartMode": "Auto",
  "RunningTasks": 129,
  "Server": "SXXX00000XXXA",
  "ComponentStatus": "Partially Offline",
  "CG_ALIAS": "CallCenter",
  "Component": "SCCObjMgr_enu"
} 

```

Kindly help.

Thanks and Regards  
Saravana S

Hi @Saravana37,

as far as I can tell the problem is the `ComponentStatus` part with in the sample log line is two words (_Partially Offline_) and in the GROK pattern you use `NOTSPACE`. tbh I do not know how to deal with that. I take it there is a set of known different possibilities for the value of `ComponentStatus`?

If there is no more concrete information about the status like @A_B suggested, we could say "One or more words separated by spaces":

`%{WORD:Server}%{SPACE}%{WORD:Component}%{SPACE}(?<ComponentStatus>(%{WORD}\s?)*%{WORD})%{SPACE}%{WORD:CG_ALIAS}%{SPACE}%{WORD:CompStartMode}%{SPACE}%{NUMBER:RunningTasks:int}%{SPACE}%{NUMBER:MaxTasks:int}`

Hello @A_B ,

The component status is with one or more Words like Running,Online,Partially Offline and "Not Online".
