Dima Kovalyov commented on METRON-2330:
---------------------------------------

Oh, I see, yeah that makes much more sense, thank you. I still wonder why the 
specified profiler does not get committed either to HBase nor to ES.

When I define this one:
{code:java}
    {
      "profile": "distinct_auth_attempts_by_user",
      "foreach": "user",
      "onlyif": "source.type == 'auth' && auth_orientation != null && 
auth_orientation == 'LogOn' && user != null && LENGTH(user) > 0 && ip_dst_host 
!= null && ip_dst_host != '?'",
      "init": {
        "total": "HLLP_INIT(5,6)"
      },
      "update": {
        "total": "HLLP_ADD(total, ip_dst_host)"
      },
      "result": {
        "profile": "total",
        "triage": {
          "total_count": "HLLP_CARDINALITY(total)"
        }
      }
    }
{code}
It works just fine.

> Dear Metron community,
>  
> "[Statistics and Mathematical 
> Functions|[https://metron.apache.org/current-book/metron-analytics/metron-statistics/index.html]]";
>  page makes use of:
> {code:java}
> "foreach": "'global'"
> {code}
> But nowhere on the internet, I was able to find any description of what it 
> is, how it's working and how to troubleshoot it.
> The page mentions "We will capture a global statistical state for the 
> {{value}} field and we will look back for a 5 minute window when computing 
> the median." from which I can guess that 'global' represents the entire 
> message instead of any particular field.
> Can you please shed some more light on it?
> In the comments, I'll post an example of my restle with it.
