I have following match statement for an log event in which data2 field will be having some events repeated with similar pattern:

match =\>["message","%{GREEDYDATA:data}process id %{NUMBER:pid}%{GREEDYDATA:data1}BBBBBB%{GREEDYDATA:data2}"]

I want to parse data2 field further into individual fields.....  
How to do so.....  
Thanks in advance.

Just add another grok filter.

```nohighlight
grok {
  match => ["data2", "..."]
}

```
