You can try like this

(index=A1 sourcetype=S1 type=traffic,subtype=forward) OR (index=A2 sourcetype=S3 type=utm,subtype=virus) | search <<your condition/filter/criteria to find virus>>

Where A1-S1 and A2-S2 are index-sourcetype combination for different subtype

Yes. That's what I mean.

That depends completely on what eventtypes you have, what your definitions are for "virus events", and a number of other factors. Please provide more details with log samples and fields, and we'll stand a better chance of helping you.

I want to manage logging from my fortigate firewall. There are two subtypes where fortigate is detecting a virus type of event. First is coming from "type=traffic,subtype=forward" and the other one is from "type=utm,subtype=virus" . I want to search for any virus from those two different subtypes? Is it possible?

Thanks,
