Duplicate Host Field from JSON Event

$

Hey there, we are pumping millions of Zabbix events in to our splunk environment over a Heavy Forwarder. The events are JSON string like this: {"host":"myHostname","groups":["OS_RHEL","OS_RHEL_ES"],"applications":["FS RHELBASIC","Filesystems"],"itemid":1234,"name":"/var/log - used space (total)","clock":1562748008,"ns":583690877,"value":194605056} the props for this sourcetype looks like this: props.conf TIME_PREFIX=\"clock\"\: CHARSET=UTF-8 INDEXED_EXTRACTIONS=json SHOULD_LINEMERGE=false At first my problem was that the host field was filled with the hostname of the Heavy Forwarder. For easier use for our users, i want the host from the JSON event in my splunk "host" field. I tried to do that with following transforms: [set_hostname_zabbix] REGEX = "host":"(?P[^"]+) FORMAT = host::$1 DEST_KEY = MetaData:Host This kind of worked, but now my problem is that i got two host fields both filled with the same data. Any ideas how I can fix this, so I just get one host field filled with the hostname from the JSON event? Regards, Max
