Operating System Module data model reference table

Use the below tables as a reference for the data models of this module. The tables contain a breakdown of the required tags for the event objects or searches in that model, and a listing of all extracted and calculated fields included in the model. Data models can be edited by navigating to Settings > Data models.

For information on how to map your data to the data models available in the Splunk IT Service Intelligence Modules, see the below links:
