IBM Operations Analytics - Log Analysis, Version 1.3.2

Escaping special characters

Regular expression or regex queries are supported by the query syntax.

Log Analysis supports escaping for the following special characters:

+ - && || ! ( ) { } [ ] ^ " ~ * ? : \ /

To escape a special character, use a back slash (\) before the special characters. For example, to search for the query (1+1):2, enter:

\(1\+1\)\:2

To find multiple terms, use brackets. For example, to search for moat and boat, enter:

/[mb]oat/
