Hi all,

2018-12-19 01:43:30|Warning|DEVAPPSVR016|9996|bgtTagger|invalid document type (ocx) specified in hint, detected (docx) document type

From the above log file details, how can I convert the "11 hrs 16 mins 23.877 secs" to the common term "secs"

Can you suggest me to modify the configuration file for this???

input {  
beats {  
port =\> 5044  
}  
}  
filter {  
grok{  
match =\> {"message" =\> "%{TIMESTAMP\_ISO8601:logtime}|%{WORD:LOGLEVEL}|%{WORD:MACHINE}|%{WORD:PROCESSID}|%{WORD:SERVICENAME}|%{WORD:PROCESS}\s+%{NUMBER:DURATION:float}\s+%{WORD:UNIT}"}  
match =\> {"message" =\> "%{TIMESTAMP\_ISO8601:logtime}|%{WORD:LOGLEVEL}|%{WORD:MACHINE}|%{WORD:PROCESSID}|%{WORD:SERVICENAME}|[%{WORD:PROCESS}]\s+%{NUMBER:DURATION:float}\s+%{WORD:UNIT}"}  
match =\> {"message" =\> "%{TIMESTAMP\_ISO8601:logtime}|%{WORD:LOGLEVEL}|%{WORD:MACHINE}|%{WORD:PROCESSID}|%{WORD:SERVICENAME}|(?%{WORD} %{WORD} %{WORD})\s+:\s+%{NUMBER:DURATION:float}\s+%{WORD:UNIT}"}  
match =\> {"message" =\> "%{TIMESTAMP\_ISO8601:logtime}|%{WORD:LOGLEVEL}|%{WORD:MACHINE}|%{WORD:PROCESSID}|%{WORD:SERVICENAME}|[%{WORD:PROCESS}]"}  
match =\> {"message" =\> "%{TIMESTAMP\_ISO8601:logtime}|%{WORD:LOGLEVEL}|%{WORD:MACHINE}|%{WORD:PROCESSID}|%{WORD:SERVICENAME}|\<%{WORD:PROCESS}\>"}  
match =\> {"message" =\> "%{TIMESTAMP\_ISO8601:logtime}|%{WORD:LOGLEVEL}|%{WORD:MACHINE}|%{WORD:PROCESSID}|%{WORD:SERVICENAME}|\<%{WORD:PROCESS}\>\s+%{NUMBER:DURATION:float}\s+%{WORD:UNIT}"}  
match =\> {"message" =\> "%{TIMESTAMP\_ISO8601:logtime}|%{WORD:LOGLEVEL}|%{WORD:MACHINE}|%{WORD:PROCESSID}|%{WORD:SERVICENAME}|%{GREEDYDATA:MSG}"}  
}  
date {  
match =\> ["logtime", "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss"]  
}

}  
output {  
elasticsearch{  
hosts =\> "localhost:9200"  
manage\_template =\> false  
index =\> "single"  
document\_type =\> "test"  
}  
stdout{codec=\>rubydebug}  
}

The above is the configuration file I have been running.....

Thanks in advance..
