Why is eventtype not tagging 100% of events?

In an attempt to explain this right... We have set up multiple eventtypes to different occurrences. For example: eventtype=major eventtype=warning major works just fine.. When running a simple search : sourcetype="example" eventtype=warning The matched results return a result that is not 100% of events. So, for example, the search returns 200 events, but when selecting `eventtype` in the interesting fields column, it shows that that warning only shows up for 90% (180) of the events. The search is still returning events that meet the requirements for the `eventtype=warning`, but it is not tagging them as such. The goal here is to generate alerts based off of these eventtypes to make it much easier to manage. My concern is if the `eventtype` field is not applying to all occurrences that an alert may not have triggered. Looking into the events that are not getting the `eventtype` field, i notice they are rather long, and the portion of the log that would fulfill the requirements for the `eventtype` field are over 100 lines down in the log. Is there a `props.conf` or maybe an `eventtype.conf` setting that can be modified? I'm wondering if it is not looking all the way through the logs to apply the field. Thanks for any help
